简要总结
This is a pilot feasibility study designed to establish the feasibility and acceptability of the "Support Your Heart" (SYH) study's phone-based protocols regarding AHA's LE8, social isolation, loneliness, and stress.
The age range for this intervention is 18-39, which is intended to reflect the transitional life period from adolescence to adulthood. Participants must also display at least two LE8 risk factors for cardiovascular disease (e.g., not enough sleep or physical activity; tobacco/nicotine product use; elevated body mass index; high cholesterol, high blood pressure, elevated HbA1c , and/or poor diet).
Participants will receive weekly calls (averaging around 20-30 minutes each) from a SYH health coach in order to review key concepts, give personalized progress, and provide consistent feedback over the course of 12 weeks. SYH staff will measure improvement in AHA metrics as well as participant burden, acceptability, satisfaction, adherence, and retention. This research has the potential to create substantial public health impact by addressing cardiovascular health, social isolation, loneliness, and stress, all of which represent significant burdens to individual health.
详细描述
This is a pilot feasibility study designed to establish the feasibility and acceptability of the telephone-based protocols of the "Support Your Heart" (SYH) intervention, a health-coach-delivered program for young adults with suboptimal cardiovascular health.
More specifically, the Support Your Heart intervention utilizes evidence-based health coaching to address cardiovascular health as moderated by social isolation, loneliness, stress, and other lifestyle behaviors. Including goal setting, mindfulness, relaxation training, thought restructuring, and establishing new hobbies. The age range for this intervention is 18-39, which is intended to reflect the transitional life period from adolescence to adulthood. Participants must also display at least two LE8 risk factors for cardiovascular disease (e.g., not enough sleep or physical activity; tobacco/nicotine product use; elevated body mass index; high cholesterol, high blood pressure, elevated HbA1c, and/or poor diet).
Participants will receive weekly calls (averaging around 20-30 minutes each) from a SYH health coach in order to review key concepts, give personalized progress, and provide consistent feedback over the course of 12 weeks. SYH staff will measure improvement in AHA metrics as well as participant burden, acceptability, satisfaction, adherence, and retention.
Participants will complete an interest form to express their intention to join this study, then they will be contacted by a SYH staff member who can provide more information and provide them with a means of completing an online screening questionnaire and scheduling an in-person screening visit. Participants would be officially enrolled in the study if deemed eligible following this visit. Once enrolled, they would complete a baseline survey before beginning the SYH health coaching. Follow-ups will be conducted at the 4-week, 8-week, and 12-week marks.
This research has the potential to create substantial public health impact by addressing cardiovascular health, social isolation, loneliness, and stress, all of which comprise significant burdens to individual health.
