Official title
Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Veteran Preferences for and Feasibility of Automated Physical Activity Interventions: A Pilot Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this pilot is to assess the feasibility and potential effectiveness of three specific e-health approaches. One approach, SparkPeople.com, involves the use of social media and can be accessed through a free website. This approach has the potential to provide support through an on-line community as well as a number of diet/weight and physical activity related tools. A mobile phone application is also available for those with smart phones. The second approach, BodyMedia, involves the use of an objective monitoring device that tracks all activity. This information can be uploaded to a website to provide ongoing monitoring and feedback about activity and energy expenditure. The third approach, P90X, involves a DVD based resistance focused exercise program. While DVD programs are not necessarily considered e-health, participants will be encouraged to participate in online community forums associated with the program. All participants, regardless of randomization, will be given 4 point of decision prompts that are laminated 8.5x11 posters encouraging healthier behaviors to display in various areas of their home. The specific aims are: 1. To assess the effect of the intervention on weight, activity levels, depression, and adherence. 2. To determine level of interest, perceptions, feasibility and satisfaction of the proposed interventions (i.e. SparkPeople.com vs. BodyMedia vs. P90X) with particular attention to: 1) social media; 2) food logs; 3) objective monitoring of physical activity; 4) use of point systems
