Obesity Clinical Trial - Mobile Exergaming in Type 2 Diabetes

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate if MOBIGAME (an innovative, mobile phone-based game application) is suitable to increase daily physical activity and physical activity adherence as well as health parameters such as cardiorespiratory fitness, leg strength, glucose metabolism, vascular health and self-determination as well as health related quality of life in the course of a 24-week intervention in comparison to the control group receiving one-time lifestyle counseling.

Clinical Trial Description

In recent years, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has grown into an emerging pandemic that is a key determinant of morbidity and mortality in both developed and developing countries worldwide. The successful treatment and prevention of T2DM is one of the biggest future health care challenges and most important to manage the enormous socio-economic burden that is associated with T2DM and its various comorbidities. Physical inactivity is known to be one of the most important risk factors for the development of obesity and T2DM. In contrast, increases in physical activity (PA) and fitness can lower the T2DM incidence, improve the patient's glucose metabolism and reduce morbidity and (premature) mortality, independent of body mass index (BMI) or other risk factors. Despite the obvious benefits of regular PA in the treatment and prevention of T2DM, most activity-promoting programs targeting T2DM patients are seldom successful in the long term due to diminishing patient motivation. A novel approach to motivate those individuals that are the least likely to engage in regular PA to be more physically active and adhere to regular PA are active video games or "exergames" that combine PA and video gaming. However, existing exergames do not offer fitness-level adjusted, individualized workouts and are normally stationary and bound to a TV, thus not enabling PA anywhere and at any time. To address these shortcomings, the investigators used sports scientific expertise to develop a smartphone-based, mobile gardening simulation game application, specifically designed for middle-aged T2DM patients, to induce a healthier, more active lifestyle as part of a successful T2DM treatment and management. ;

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.
