Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a 6-month telephone-based motivational interviewing intervention and a web-based application intervention to improve physical activity in participants with Parkinson's Disease.


Description:

Participants will be randomized into one of four groups to examine two separate interventions. The groups are: motivational interviewing (a counseling/coaching style), a web-based application for participants to keep track of their physical activity, a combination of the motivational interviewing and the web-based application, and an educational program on various issues related to Parkinson's Disease. The intervention will last 6 months with a follow-up appointment at 9 months. Participants will be asked to come to Galter Pavilion at Northwestern Memorial Hospital or Shirley Ryan AbilityLab a total of five times over the course of the nine months.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) Intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention by monitoring the change in physical activity using data collected from an Actigraph activity monitor. Participants will wear an Actigraph activity monitor for one week every quarter to collect data about physical activity throughout the duration of the study. Time spent doing physical activity will be compared at each assessment for this outcome. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Primary Test the efficacy of the MI Intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention by monitoring the change in physical activity using the Physical Activity Scale for Individuals with Physical Disabilities (PASIPD). PASIPD is a 13-item 7-day physical activity recall questionnaire designed to evaluate physical activity levels in people with physical disabilities by soliciting information about leisure time activities, household activities, and work- related activities. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Secondary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention for improving balance using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS). The Berg Balance Scale is a 14-item performance measure to assess static balance and fall risk. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Secondary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention for improving balance using the Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC). Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale is a 16-item self-report measure of confidence in performing various activities of daily living without falling. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Secondary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention for improving balance using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). The UPDRS is an assessment that monitors the progression of Parkinson's Disease. For this outcome, the "postural stability" portion of the assessment will be used to determine balance improvements. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Secondary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention for improving quality of life using the assessment measure Neuro-QOL. The Neuro-QOL is a set of self-report measures that assess the health-related quality of life of adults and children with neurological disorders. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
Secondary Test the efficacy of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) intervention and the Web-Based Self-Monitoring Application Intervention for improving quality of life using the assessment measure Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). PROMIS Global Health is a 10-item scale rating physical and mental health and overall quality of life. Assessment will occur at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
