Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
University of Colorado, Denver
Brief Summary

Chronic disease self-management interventions and meditative movement approaches (.e.g., yoga) can independently improve depressive symptoms. However, to our knowledge there are no interventions integrating evidence-based chronic disease management strategies with yoga to maximize physical, psychological or social outcomes, nor are mobile health platforms commonly used to improve the reach of these integrated interventions. Therefore, we developed Merging-Yoga for Self-Management Skills Mobile (MY-Skills Mobile). Our first aim is to adapt the MY-Skills Mobile to tailor the intervention to older adults with multiple chronic conditions (MCC) by convening a panel of patient and care-partner stakeholders. We will convene four patient and care-partner dyads (N=8) to serve as study partners for three longitudinal focus groups to suggest and review MY-Skills Mobile adaptations. We will then conduct a usability study of MY-Skills Mobile with older adults with MCC and their care-partners. We will conduct two waves of rapid-cycle prototyping with 5 dyads in each wave (N=20). Dyads will participate in MY-Skills Mobile modules. We will then use acceptability surveys and use data in each wave to iteratively adapt MY-Skills Mobile to optimize usability and acceptability.

MY-Skills Mobile InterventionMY-Skills MobileMY-Skills Mobile is an 8-week intervention merging yoga and self-management offered via remote tools including Zoom (video-conferencing software), Canvas (education software), and Qualtrics (survey software) that can be accessed via a computer or tablet. The self-management content is delivered primarily through asynchronous tools that include educational videos and interactive activities for goal setting, action plan, monitoring goals, and problem-solving practice. Yoga is offered synchronously via Zoom two-times per week for 60 minutes (120 minutes per week). The synchronous yoga sessions will be offered at a time that best accommodates participants' schedules. Yoga will become progressively challenging over the eight weeks and will include seated and standing postures.
