About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Synchronized Tele-exercise on Sleep Quality and Quality of Life for Healthy Young Adults: A Randomized Double-blind Controlled Trial

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of telehealth-synchronized group exercise on sleep and quality of life, and secondarily, on the health and body perception of healthy young adults. This study is planned as a randomized double-blind controlled clinical study.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of telehealth-synchronized group exercise on sleep and quality of life, and secondarily, on the health and body perception of healthy young adults. This study is planned as a randomized double-blind controlled clinical study. The sample size was calculated using G*power 3.1.9.2, which required 42 patients and a size effect of 0.8, 80% power, 1:1 allocation ratio, and an error probability of 0.05. Forty-eight participants were planned to be included in the study, based on the probability that 15% of the patients could be excluded.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • synchronized tele-exerciseOther

    All evaluations and exercise interventions will be performed by via Google Meet, a video-conferencing application. The participation link will be sent to the individual by the researcher before each session. In case of any technological disruption, the session will be postponed to the nearest available time by phone. All interventions will be run by a blinded researcher.

Study groups in NCT06097624
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ExerciseExperimentalThe exercises will be applied three times a week for four weeks. Each exercise is going to start with 10 repetitions and 1 set in the first session, and the exercises will be revised at the beginning of each week. Resistance will gradually be increased, and after four weeks, 3 sets of 10 repetitions will be targeted.
Receives: Other: synchronized tele-exercise
ControlNo interventionAfter a waiting period of four weeks, the participants will be contacted for reevaluation, and at the end of the assessment, an individual home exercise program will be created for them.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)

    The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a 19-item self-report questionnaire that assesses sleep quality over the last month. Its adaptation to Turkish and its reliability and validity analyses were carried out in 1996 by Ağargün el al. It covers seven components of sleep each of which are scored between 0-3: sleep duration, sleep disturbances, sleep latency, daytime dysfunction due to sleepiness, sleep efficiency, overall sleep quality, and sleep medication use. The PSQI provides a global score that ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating poorer sleep quality: smaller than 5, the score points to "Good Sleep Quality"; greater than or equal to 5, it indicates poor sleep quality (Buysee 1989, Agargun 1996). PSQI is a reliable and valid tool for assessing sleep quality in clinical and research settings.

  3. World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief Form

    The WHOQOL is based on a purely subjective evaluation to assess the perceived quality of life. The short version, the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief Form (WHOQOL-BREF) is a 26-item self-report questionnaire that assesses the quality of life (QOL) within the context of an individual's culture, value systems, personal goals, standards, and concerns. It covers four domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environmental health.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Body Perception

    Participants will be asked to choose how they perceived their current body image, or "how they look'. Body mass index (BMI) classification will be used: 'Underweight', 'Healthy weight', 'Overweight', 'Obese', 'Severely obese'.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing synchronized tele-exercise in people with Healthy, run by Okan University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) (time frame: 0th week). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Oct 2023.
