Physical Capacity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Intelligent Physical Exercise Training (IPET) in the Offshore Wind Industry: A Feasibility Study
A study to assess the feasibility of a 12-week exercise intervention aiming at improving the physical capacity and health of wind technicians. it was hypothesized that the intervention would be well-accepted by workers and show high compliance and clinically relevant increases in physical capacities among wind technicians.
One-arm feasibility study, including a within-group control period, to test compliance, practicality, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of implementing intelligent physical exercise training (IPET) in the offshore wind industry among wind technicians. The exercise program was individually tailored based on the findings from a pre-screening health and physical capacity check and the occupational demands of wind technicians. Primary outcomes were compliance, adherence, adverse events and satisfaction. Secondary outcomes were physical capacity and musculoskeletal disorders. Prior to the feasibility study, intervention mapping was used as a theoretical tool to plan the intervention. The intervention consisted of 1-hour weekly individually tailored exercise training during working hours. Exercise sessions were supervised during the first 8 weeks of the intervention and self-administered the last 4 weeks. The design included a 6 month control period prior to initiating the intervention. Thus, included technicians (n:24) had their health and physical capacity assessed 6 months prior to intervention start (T1), at intervention start (T2) and 12 weeks after (T3) and they responded to questionnaires on musculoskeletal symptoms at all three occasions. Further, a questionnaire customized to the specific intervention was distributed to all technicians 8 weeks after intervention start to assess satisfaction with the exercise program. ;
