Physical Activity, mHealth & Intellectual Disability

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of this pilot study is to assess distant procedures, study experiences and feasibility of a planned randomized controlled trial investigating the use of a mHealth support tool on physical activity for individuals with intellectual disability.

Clinical Trial Description

For individuals with intellectual disability (ID) with low physical activity (PA) levels, new methods to increase participation in physical activity are needed. Motivation for participation in PA should include both individuals with ID, family members and staff, and it should work in a supportive way to strengthen mastery experiences. Technology-based interventions have not yet been explored extensively. The study objective is to assess feasibility of procedures for a distant, COVID-19-secure intervention, study pre-treatment expectations and experiences of participants and their caregivers. In addition, the study will explore the effectiveness of an individually tailored PA program with motivational mobile health support on everyday levels of PA, goal setting and self-efficacy in a PA setting for youth and adults with intellectual disabilities. The current protocol concerns the conducting of a mixed method pilot study to test intervention procedures of a planned complex randomised controlled trial, with steps per day as main outcome. Ten participants with intellectual disability are included. Assessment are at baseline, follow-up after 4 weeks and 12 weeks. Goal attainment scale will be used together with the introduction of an activity planner application named Active Leisure as the intervention. Feasibility and acceptance of procedures, activity measures and questionnaires are assessed. The present trial will investigate how modern technology and e-health can be used in the promotion of PA in individuals with IDs. The study has potentially important implications for both individuals with IDs and their support networks. If successful, the project will provide a simple and accessible solution for promoting PA in individuals with IDs. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
