Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to analyze the determinants (barriers and facilitators) of the daily physical activity level in a population of patients with cystic fibrosis. A population of patients will be included in order to realize an assessment of their daily physical activity level over an entire week. A specific questionnaire, designed from 3 different questionnaires, will be associated to the physical activity evaluation and will allow to asses psycho-social and environmental factors.

Description:

Physical activity (PA) is a major component of the management of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Regular PA is associated, in cystic fibrosis as in other pathologies, with health benefits and a greater life expectancy. However, the literature shows an absence of consensus for the daily PA level reached by CF patients, and also for the determinants of this PA level. It appears that CF patients tend to have a reduced PA level, compared to international guidelines. Some determinants have already been mentioned, like physical, psychological or organizational factors. But these factors have not been considered in a multifactorial way, by also considering social and environmental factors, and are rarely associated with objective PA level measurement or only reported in paediatric population. A better comprehension of these determinants of daily PA level represents an important issue for the optimization of interventions designed for the promotion of PA in cystic fibrosis.

For this study, a population of CF patients will realize an evaluation of their daily PA level based on accelerometry (by wearing a portable device over 7 days). During the PA assessment, patients will have a questionnaire to fill in, delivered with the sensor. The objective assessment of PA level will be analyzed with regard to various parameters from different dimensions: individual, clinical, psycho-social and environmental. Individual and clinical parameters will be collected from patients' data routinely assessed for the management of patients. Psycho-social and environmental parameters will be assessed with a specific questionnaire, specifically designed from 3 different questionnaires.

Intervention

Device:
• Accelerometer
For the following study, each patient will be asked to wear a portable device over a 7-day period. The accelerometer will be previously set up according to anthropometric data of the patient and scheduled to automatically start and stop accelerations registration. The patient will be asked to wear the sensor as frequently as possible, with the exception of sleep period and during aquatic activities. A diary will be delivered to the patient in order to notify any problem/issue observed during the evaluation week (for example forgetting to wear the sensor). The accelerometry assessment will be associated to a questionnaire. Each patient will have to fill in it during the evaluation week. The questionnaire is composed of various questions from three different questionnaires: Ricci & Gagnon for subjective evaluation of PA level, CFQ-14+ for the evaluation of quality of life specifically in CF and EQ-5D for a more generic evaluation of quality of life.
