Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this voluntary research study is to determine the impact of an ECHO intervention on the likelihood that rural primary care providers (PCP) will refer their physically inactive patients to be more active.


Clinical Trial Description

People living in rural areas are diagnosed and die from cancer at higher rates than people living in cities. Physical activity has been shown to decrease the risk and occurrence of a variety of cancers, including bladder, breast, colon, endometrial, gastric, kidney, and prostate cancers. Being inactive can cause over 10% of breast and colon cancer cases. Compared to people living in cities, people living in rural areas tend to be less physically active. They're also more likely to be overweight/obese or have diabetes. Adults who are overweight, obese, or diabetic often have changes in the way their bodies deal with insulin, glucose metabolism, and inflammation. Physical activity is thought to reduce the risk of cancer by improving these issues over time. PCPs and their staff can identify a patient's need for more physical activity, but may not have the time or resources to give advice or assistance. We have set up a telephone-based physical activity coaching program, called the MoveLine, to give inactive patients advice and assistance in becoming more physically active. The purpose of this study is to determine if an ECHO intervention will impact the likelihood that PCPs will refer patients to the MoveLine for physical activity coaching. Approximately 32-48 providers will take part in this research study. ;
