Clinical Trial Summary

Regular physical activity should be the essence of treatment in patients with cardiovascular risk factors. Unfortunately, these interventions are usually insufficiently promoted and therefore have only limited efficacy. The aim of the study was to determine the benefits of nurse led intervention to promote physical activity in sedentary older adults with cardio-vascular risk factors in the outpatient setting. Eligible patients are randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive nurse led tutorial on life-style modification including pedometer hand-out with a daily goal of at least 7000 steps and supporting phone calls (study group) or without a goal or calls (control group). The primary end-point of the study is change in body weight. Secondary end-points include changes in resting heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol and fasting glucose and clinical outcomes at 3 months follow-up.
