简要总结
This study will test an exercise intervention (E-ICD) following an implantable cardioverter defibrillator.
详细描述
The goal of this study is to test the effectiveness and describe implementation of a home based exercise intervention for persons with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). This study is based on the NIH stage model of behavioral interventions (stage III effectiveness) that aligns with the strategic mission of the NHLBI, to optimize clinical and implementation research to improve health and reduce disease (Obj #6). The study intervention is based on the protocol and monitoring components that were developed in prior RCTs and a pilot study conducted by our team. From these studies, we created a home based exercise program called Exercise-ICD (E-ICD) for testing in a broader range of ICD patients, that assists individuals to start and monitor exercise safely after an ICD. An randomized two group (E-ICD vs. usual care) pragmatic effectiveness mixed-methods study is proposed, to determine the effectiveness of the E-ICD intervention and describe implementation by cardiac rehabilitation (CR) clinical staff. Two hundred ten (N=210) patients in 3 local study sites (70/site) in the greater Seattle, WA area will participate. E-ICD is guided by the Reach-Effectiveness-Adoption-Implementation-Maintenance (RE-AIM) model. The E-ICD intervention consists of 12 weeks of home walking exercise using exercise prescriptions and protocols validated in our previous work. The primary effectiveness outcome is patient physical activity (steps/day) after the E-ICD intervention at 3 months. We will determine the number of patients who reach the public health walking goal of moderate level exercise of 150 minutes/week at the end of the study. Measures will be taken at baseline, after the intervention at 3 months, and at 6 and 12 months to determine maintenance. The specific aims are to: 1) Test the hypothesis that participants randomized to E-ICD vs. usual care (UC) will demonstrate increased physical activity (minutes walked/week) [primary outcome], health related quality of life, gait speed, mobility, exercise self-efficacy; and reduced ICD shock anxiety and depression at 3 months (E-ICD Effectiveness), 2) Assess longer term effects of E-ICD on participant and health care system Maintenance, captured by 1) participant retention, satisfaction, and adherence at 12 months (total minutes/week), and 2) clinician and institutional intent to sustain use of the E-ICD intervention after the study, and 3) Evaluate the reach, adoption, and implementation of E-ICD by CR clinical staff. Reach will be assessed by the diverse patient participation rate, representativeness, and reasons for non-interest. Adoption is the participation rate and representativeness of the settings and staff who participate, and factors related to adoption. Implementation will be assessed by delivery fidelity of E-ICD and workflow adaptations, implementation costs, and consistency of delivery across settings.

研究组 & 干预措施
E-ICD Intervention
E-ICD Intervention over 3 months, consists of home walking to achieve the goal of 30 minutes on all or most of the days at moderate level intensity. E-ICD elements are: 1) exercise instructional DVD and manual, 2) exercise monitoring tools (Polar HR monitor, Borg scale, and exercise logs), and 3) telephone coaching by cardiac rehabilitation (CR) staff. Each participant receives an exercise prescription based on the ICD information using HR cut-offs, a minimum of 4 walking sessions/week will be prescribed. Exercise maintenance: At the 3 month conclusion of the E-ICD intervention, each patient will receive an exercise prescription based on the level they were able to achieve, with guidelines about increasing exercise to reach the target of 30 minutes/walking on all or most days over the ensuing 3 months.
干预措施: E-ICD Intervention (Behavioral)
Usual Care
Usual Care will receive treatment "as usual" from their health care clinicians with outcomes measured at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months. Participants will not be discouraged from physical activity, but will be asked not to change their current level of activity for 6 months while in the study. Usual care involves ICD interrogation and follow-up every 3 months, measured either in-person or with home telephonic transmissions. Because participants in usual care may choose to participate in another exercise program, we will monitor those who participate in exercise programs and use the StepWatch monitor to quantify the amount and timing of physical activity. To control for group differences in attention, investigators will telephone usual care participants requesting information about health care utilization twice during the study at 3, 6, and 12 months.
