- Brief Summary
The objectives of this study are to 1) evaluate whether Choose to Move (CTM) improves health outcomes in older adults who participate and 2) assess whether CTM is delivered as planned and what factors support or inhibit delivery at scale.
CTM is a 6 month, choice-based program for low active older adults being scaled-up across British Columbia, Canada. The goals of CTM are to enhance physical activity, mobility and social connectedness in older adults living in British Columbia, Canada.
- Detailed Description
CTM is a 6 month, choice-based program for low active older adults being scaled-up in phases across British Columbia, Canada. Within CTM (phase 3), trained activity coaches support older adults in three ways. First, in a one-on-one consultation, activity coaches help participants to set goals and create action plans for physical activity tailored to each person's interests and abilities. Older adults can choose to participate in individual or group-based activities. Second, activity coaches facilitate a series of group meetings with small groups of participants. Finally, activity coaches regularly check in with participants to provide ongoing support. Activity coaches and recreation departments across BC are trained and provided with resources to deliver CTM.
Objectives:
1. To assess the impact (effectiveness) of CTM (phase 3) delivered at scale on the physical activity, mobility and social connectedness of older adults (Part I - Impact Evaluation)
2. To assess whether the program was implemented as planned (fidelity) and investigate factors that support or inhibit implementation at scale (Part II - Implementation Evaluation).
Study Design:
We use a hybrid type 2 effectiveness-implementation (Curran et al 2012) pre-post study design to evaluate CTM. We use mixed-methods (quantitative and qualitative) and collect data at 0 (baseline), 3 (mid-intervention), 6 (post-intervention) and 18 (12-months post-intervention) months to assess effectiveness and implementation of CTM.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in physical activity 0, 3, 6, 18-months The single item physical activity questionnaire will be used to measure physical activity (Milton, Bull \& Bauman, 2011). Output variable is self-reported number of days/week ≥30 min PA in the past week.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in loneliness 0, 3, 6, 18-months The three-item loneliness scale (Hughes et al., 2004) will be used to assess change in loneliness. Participants rate three aspects of loneliness. The output variable is loneliness score (range 3-9); lower scores indicate lower levels of loneliness.
Change in social isolation 0, 3, 6, 18-months We assessed social isolation using a three-item questionnaire adapted from two questions on social contact frequency (Veroff et al 1981). The output variable is social isolation score (range 0-15); higher scores indicate less social isolation.
Change in physical functioning 0, 3, 6, 18-months Mobility will be assessed with the Physical Functioning Subscale of the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36; Ware et al., 1989). The measure asks participants to rate if their health limits them in performing 10 different activities. The output variable is an average score from 0-100 of physical functioning, where a higher score indicates a more favourable health state.
Change in physical activity (PAAQ) 0, 3, 6, 18-months The Physical Activity Adult Questionnaire will be used to assess physical activity over the previous 7 days (Garriguet et al 2015). Output variable is minutes of PA/week.
Change in health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L Level Sum Score) 0, 3, 6, 18-months Health status (EQ-5D-5L Level Sum Score) will be assessed with the EQ-5D-5L (The EuroQol Group, 1990). Participants report on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression on a scale from 1-5 (level of perceived problems) for each item. The Level Sum Score uses the 5-digit profile to create a numeric score, with scores ranging from 5-25 (lower levels indicate lower levels of perceived problems).
Change in health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L Visual Analogue Scale) 0, 3, 6, 18-months health status (EQ-5D-5L Visual Analogue Scale) will be assessed with the EQ-5D-5L (The EuroQol Group, 1990). Participants report on their health on a visual analogue scale from 0 (worst health) to 100 (best health).
Change in physical activity (CHAMPS) 0, 3, 6, 18-months We use the CHAMPS questionnaire (Stewart et al 2001) to assess weekly frequency and duration of a variety of physical activities and use the CHAMPS scoring algorithms to calculate energy expenditure (kcal/week) and frequency (times/week).
Change in mobility limitations 0, 3, 6, 18-months Two items will assess change in a participants' ability to walk a quarter of a mile and up 10 steps (Simonsick et al., 2008). The output variable is self-reported presence of mobility-disability (no/any difficulty walking 400m or climbing one flight of stairs).
Change In sitting time 0, 3, 6, 18-months A five-item questionnaire (Marshall et al., 2010) will be used to assess change in sitting time (hours and minutes) each day in the following domains: (a) while travelling to and from places (e.g., work, shops); (b) while at work; (c) while watching television; (d) while using a computer at home; and (e) at leisure not including watching television (e.g., visiting friends, movies, eating out) on a weekday and a weekend day. The output variables are sitting hours per day across 5 domains
Change in health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L Profile) 0, 3, 6, 18-months Health status (EQ-5D-5L Profile) will be assessed with the EQ-5D-5L (The EuroQol Group, 1990). Participants report on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression on a scale from 1-5 (level of perceived problems) for each item. Responses are used to create a 5-digit number which will be used descriptively.
Change in social network 0, 3, 6, 18-months We use a six-item questionnaire (Lubben et al., 2006) to assess social isolation. The output variable is an equally weighted sum (range 0-30).
Change in grip strength (subset) 0, 3, 6, 18-months We assess grip strength using a hand grip dynamometer and standard protocols. We combine the best trial from each side and report the sum as total grip strength.
Change in lower extremity function (subset) 0, 3, 6, 18-months We use the short performance physical battery (SPPB) to assess lower extremity functioning (Guralnik et al 1994). The output variable is an equally weighted sum of 3 subscores (range 0-12); higher scores represent better performance.
