简要总结
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effectiveness of identifying people with osteoarthritis (OA) who are interested in individualized exercise programs through a web-based osteoarthritis application; assessing their exercise barriers, facilitators, motivators and preferences; and engaging them in an exercise program tailored to meet their needs by a Certified Fitness Trainer.
详细描述
The investigators hypothesize that it is feasible and acceptable to identify people with knee pain and osteoarthritis (OA) who are interested in individualized exercise programs through a web-based osteoarthritis treatment diagnosis application; to assess their exercise barriers, facilitators, motivators and preferences; and engage them in an exercise program tailored to meet their needs by a Certified Fitness Trainer.
The investigators will accomplish this by:
-
Evaluating the feasibility of identifying patients using a web-based preference diagnosis tool (PDx) who have knee pain and osteoarthritis and do not meet exercise guidelines but are interested in tailored exercise programs;
-
Evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of using self-report assessment tools to identify barriers, facilitators, motivators, and preferences for exercise and to screen participants for health problems that will limit their ability to exercise safely; and
-
Evaluating the feasibility and potential effectiveness of using the exercise assessment tool by patients with knee pain and osteoarthritis to select an individualized exercise program with the help of a Certified Fitness Trainer and to engage in routine physical exercise.

Study Design
Study design: The investigators will use a pre-post pilot study design. The assessments will be held at either the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (One Medical Center Drive, Lebanon NH 03756), or The Dartmouth Centers for Health and Aging (46 Centerra Parkway, Lebanon, NH 03766). Assessments will be conducted by the principal investigator (PI), and/or a research assistant (RA). Consent and approval of the Committee for the Protections of Human Subjects of Dartmouth College will be obtained prior to starting the study. Volunteer non-exercising and under-exercising participants aged 50-85 will be recruited through flyers and provider referral. Recruitment will continue until 10 participants answer "yes" to the exercise question on PDx. Written informed consent will be obtained for all participants.
