Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Vigorous Exercise on Motor Function and Functional Fitness in Juvenile Arthritis
The objectives of this study are to study the effect of formal exercise training on motor function and overall physical fitness in children with arthritis. A 12-week comprehensive exercise program will be used. Formal exercise training will be compared to Qi gong.
Childhood arthritis is a common and often debilitating disease. Children with arthritis are
less active than their peers, and consequently they often have poor physical fitness. This
study follows up our pilot study, in which we showed that exercise training can be safely
carried out in children who have arthritis.
We plan to randomly assign 80 children with arthritis to one of two groups. The experimental
group undergoes a vigorous exercise training program consisting of twelve weekly supervised
sessions as well as twice weekly at home sessions using an exercise video. The control group
also has twelve supervised sessions and two home sessions. However, their exercises are
non-strenuous, based on Qi gong. All children have comprehensive fitness testing before and
after the training at the exercise lab at the Hospital for Sick Children.
If we show that fitness exercise leads to improved motor function and improved ability to
carry out activities of daily living, then we will change the way in which we provide
therapy for childhood arthritis. We hope that this study will lead to an improved quality of
life for children with arthritis.
