简要总结
Physical inactivity is a major risk behaviour with a potential for causing premature death, particularly among people with mobility limitations, such as knee osteoarthritis.
Digital motivational interventions (such as SMS) can motive to a healthy behaviour including increased physical activity.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if motivational text messages following an exercise intervention to improve mobility limitations will change the physical activity level in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
This study is designed as pilot randomized controlled trial, with equal randomization (1:1). Eligible participants will be randomised into one of two groups (intervention or control) after completing their baseline measurements. The intervention group will receive weekly motivational text messages and the control group will not receive any attention from the study.

研究组 & 干预措施
No intervention
No attention from the study
SMS text message
The content of the text messages is developed based on recommendation and advice from the Danish Health Authority about the importance of regular daily physical activity.
For 6 weeks, the text messages will be send three times per week, twice during the week days and once in the weekend, based on previous experience with SMS as motivation for chronic pain patients.
干预措施: Motivational SMS text message (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline in physical inactivity
时间窗: 6 weeks
Physical inactivity is measured using an accelerometer based activity monitor. Physical activity is defined as time (in minutes) spent inactive, i.e. lying, sitting, standing during a day.
次要结局
- Transition questionnaire (TRANS-Q) of perceived change in knee symptoms(6 weeks)
- Self-reported change in physical inactivity(6 weeks)
- Change form baseline in the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)(6 weeks)
