- Brief Summary
The goal of this proposal is to test the efficacy of a primary care-delivered, print-based physical activity intervention for Latinas with type II diabetes. The investigators will test the efficacy of this intervention by randomizing 80 Latinas with type II diabetes recruited through UCSD Health System primary care to either the adapted web-based physical activity intervention or standard of care, and assessing physical activity gains at six and 12 months. The ultimate goal is to develop a print-based physical activity intervention for diabetic Latinas that could be widely disseminated through primary care.
- Detailed Description
Studies show that adoption of regular physical activity (PA) can greatly enhance diabetes management and prevention. Individuals who adopt a PA routine show significant improvements in clinical markers of diabetes, including HbA1c, glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, weight and waist circumference, and significant reductions in medication use, and also show reductions in cardiovascular risk factors and other related co-morbidities. Incorporation of cost-effective PA interventions into primary care for diabetes treatment could therefore enhance overall health and quality of life and significantly reduce healthcare costs. The primary aim of this study is to conduct a small randomized trial (N=80) to test the efficacy of an individually tailored culturally adapted print-based physical activity intervention integrated into primary care to increase weekly moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in Latinas with type II diabetes, compared to those receiving standard of care.

Group Intervention Description Tailored Physical Activity Intervention Tailored Physical Activity Intervention Intervention group will receive Spanish-language physical activity print intervention based on SCT and Transtheoretical Model, (TTM) that emphasizes behavioral strategies for increasing activity levels. Standard of Care Control Group Standard of Care Control group will receive standard of care through the Family Medicine clinic as well as monthly questionnaires on topics other than physical activity (e.g. diet) to complete.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective Changes in Physical Activity from Baseline to 6 Months Baseline, 6 Months (MO) The ActiGraph GT3X+ accelerometer will be the primary measure to assess objective changes in physical activity from baseline to 6 months.
Self-Report Changes in Physical Activity from Baseline to 6 Months Baseline, 6 Months (MO) The 7-Day Physical Activity Recall (PAR) will also assess self-reported changes in physical activity from baseline to 6 months. The 7-Day PAR is an interviewer administered instrument that uses multiple strategies for increasing accuracy of participant recall regarding many types of activities such as time spent sleeping and moderate, hard, and very hard intensity activities. The 7-Day PAR is used across many studies assessing physical activity and has consistently demonstrated acceptable reliability, internal consistency, and congruent validity with other objective measures of activity levels.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Self-Report Changes in Physical Activity from 6 Months to 12 Months 6 Months (MO), 12 Months (MO) The 7-Day Physical Activity Recall (PAR) will also assess self-reported changes in physical activity from 6 to 12 months. The 7-Day PAR is an interviewer administered instrument that uses multiple strategies for increasing accuracy of participant recall regarding many types of activities such as time spent sleeping and moderate, hard, and very hard intensity activities.
