The Energize! Study for Adults with Knee Replacement

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Knee Arthroplasty
Interventions
Behavioral: Energize!
Registration Number
NCT06096727
Lead Sponsor
University of South Carolina
Brief Summary

The purpose is to examine the effects of an online physical activity program on moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity, pain, and physical function in adults with knee replacement at 3 months (post-intervention) and 6 months (maintenance).

Detailed Description

Participants with knee replacement will be randomized to start the online physical activity program (Energize!) either immediately or after 3 months. The online program consists of weekly physical activity goals, video lessons, action planning, and homework to help increase physical activity to 200 min/week. Assessments will be completed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Self-reported physical functionbaseline to 3 months

Physical function assessed by Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System physical function/mobility survey. A t-score of 0 represents poor function compared to average and 100 represents better function.

Minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activitybaseline to 3 months

activity assessed by Actigraph accelerometers

Pain intensitybaseline to 3 months

Pain intensity assessed by Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System pain intensity survey. 0 represents no pain and 10 reports the most severe pain

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity3 months to 6 months
