Official title
The Impact of Brief Primary Care Counseling and Novel Physiological Measures on Patient Physical and Emotional Health
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This research project brings together the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) National Research Network (AAFP-NRN) and the AAFP's public health initiative, Americans In Motion (AIM). This project will develop and evaluate a practice improvement program to improve family physicians' delivery of effective patient-centered behavior change interventions for "fitness" (physical activity, nutrition and emotional well-being). The investigators seek to develop a unique program that positions fitness in a central role as "the treatment of choice" when dealing with issues of prevention and treatment of chronic conditions. In addition, this newly developed program is intended to help shift the paradigm of family physicians' use of common advice-giving methods to more effective patient-centered lifestyle counseling. Ultimately, this program will seek to improve care for all patients through fitness-related physician interventions. Outcomes: This study design will allow the investigators to evaluate whether (and how) dissemination of educational materials impacts patient intervention by first engaging clinicians and staff in their personal use of these materials. This project will also evaluate the effects of the behavioral change tools, as well as, the added impact of new physiologic feedback measures (HOMA-IR and NMR Lipoprotein profiles) on physical activity and diet in study participants. Conclusion: Primary care offices can become more effective settings to help patients improve physical activity, diet and emotional well-being. Demonstrating the value and impact of creating "healthy offices" that endorse and support clinicians, office staff and patients in the use of effective educational materials fits well with the new model of care as part of the AAFP's "Future of Family Medicine" initiatives, which emphasize the importance of lifestyle decisions and supporting successful changes in behaviors within primary care. This project will help define how to accomplish this.
