Piloting an Online Integrated Behaviour Change and Physical Activity Program

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Physical Activity; Neurological Disorder; Behavioural Change Intervention
• Interventions: Behavioral: Integrated Physical Activity and Behavioural Change Intervention

• Registration Number: NCT05453149
• Lead Sponsor: Lawson Health Research Institute

Brief Summary

There is a significant disparity in access to physical activity programs for people with mobility impairments, which greatly impacts mobility, function and long-term wellbeing. This study will test an online, group-based intervention consisting of exercise and behaviour activation strategies targeting these and other outcomes. Importantly, this programming will be applied to patient groups across several clinical programs at Parkwood Institute.
