简要总结
This pilot feasibility study aims to test whether youth and adults with spinal cord injury can use a group virtual reality gaming intervention to exercise. A second purpose is to examine whether there are potential benefits to cardiometabolic health and psychosocial health.
详细描述
There are three purposes to this study.
The first purpose is to quantify feasibility through telemonitored exercise data: total play time, moderate exercise time, playtime with others, and compliance to the data collections. These variables will be compared against a priori criteria for acceptability. These variables will help determine whether modifications to the intervention protocol are necessary.
The second purpose is to qualitatively interview participants to explain underlying behavioral mechanisms that affect their participation in the program. This information will be used to explain how to improve implementation issues identified in Aim 1.
The third aim is to explore the potential effects of the program on self-reported psychosocial health and quality of life, hand-grip strength, and cardiometabolic health (blood cholesterol, lipids, pressure, and insulin) measured via home dried blood spot test.

结局指标
主要结局
Total play time
时间窗: Intervention Week 1 - Week 8
Percentage of the 300 minutes of prescribed play per week across the intervention.
Total exercise time
时间窗: Intervention Week 1 - Week 8
Moderate exercise minutes where prescription was met (percent of prescription achieved: weeks where the ≥90 minutes of moderate intensity exercise per week was achieved across the intervention, divided by total weeks).
Compliance to post data collections
时间窗: Week 9
Number of pre data collections completed, converted into a percentage dividing by the total possible.
Compliance to baseline data collection
时间窗: Week 0
Number of pre data collections completed, converted into a percentage dividing by the total possible.
Playtime with others
时间窗: Intervention Week 1 - Week 8
Measured by the number of play sessions with other players (online multiplayer and/or peer-gaming). This number will be totaled across the 8-week intervention and divided by 16 (the exercise prescription of 2 x per week of multiplayer gaming).
