Clinical Trial Summary

This study will assess the effect of a mindfulness meditation program administered via a smartphone application on health-related quality of life for patients with rheumatic disease.


Description:

After obtaining written consent, participants will be asked to download and use the Calm meditation smartphone application everyday for a 30-day period. Participant demographics and clinical information will be collected at baseline. Participants will additionally be asked to complete questionnaires concerning health-related quality of life (HRQoL) as well as mental health, stress, and self-efficacy at baseline and at the end of the 30 day study period. A brief check-in via telephone will be conducted on day 15. Participants using the calm app will be compared to participants receiving usual care who will be asked to complete identical sets of questionnaires. The participant may choose whether they join the Calm application vs usual care (questionnaires only) group on a voluntary basis; there is no pre-assignment. The Calm application is a publicly available program that is available to any patient independent of this study.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of participants recruited The investigators' goal is to recruit 264 participants. The investigators will report the number of participants recruited which will be a measure of Percentage of target enrollment achieved. 2 years
Primary Total number of minutes per participant The program consists of a total of 150 minutes. The investigators will report the total number of minutes per participant as a measure of adherence to program. 30 days
Secondary Change in Anxiety as assessed by the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured.

Secondary Change in Depression as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The depression T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 41-79. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Fatigue as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The fatigue T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 33-75. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Physical Function as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The physical function T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 22-56. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Social participation as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The social participation T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 29-64. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Pain interference as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The pain interference T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 41-75. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Sleep disturbance as assessed by the PROMIS Global-29 profile The PROMIS global-29 measure is reported as a profile. For PROMIS instruments, a T-score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. The sleep disturbance T-score (subscale of PROMIS being used here) ranges from 32-73. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Anxiety as assessed by the PROMIS anxiety computer adaptive testing (CAT) The PROMIS anxiety CAT has a T-score range of 40 to 81. For PROMIS instruments, a score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Depression as assessed by the PROMIS depression CAT The PROMIS depression CAT has a T-score range of 38 to 81. For PROMIS instruments, a score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Self-Efficacy for managing emotions as assessed by the PROMIS self-efficacy for managing emotions short form (8a) The PROMIS self-efficacy for managing emotions form has a T-score range of 22 to 64. For PROMIS instruments, a score of 50 is the average for the United States general population with a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate more of the trait being measured. Baseline, 30 days
Secondary Change in Self-Efficacy for managing symptoms as assessed by the PROMIS self-efficacy for managing symptoms short form (8a) The PROMIS self-efficacy for managing symptoms form has a T-score range of 22 to 63.
