Behavioral: Prehabilitation
Registration Number
NCT02767895
Lead Sponsor
University of Michigan
Brief Summary

Patients undergoing elective revascularization of their peripheral artery disease will be randomized to a prehabilitation program or usual care prior to their scheduled procedure.

Detailed Description

Patients undergoing elective revascularization for their peripheral artery disease will be randomized to a "prehabilitation" program prior to their surgery or to usual care. The prehabilitation program is self-directed program designed to improve health and quality of life prior to surgery. The program is currently offered to general surgery patients; this study will examine the feasibility and acceptability of such a program in a different patient population.

PrehabilitationPrehabilitationParticipants will be referred to the Michigan Surgical \& Health Optimization Program in the month leading up to their surgery. Individuals are encouraged to increase their physical activity, practice stress reduction, and other behaviors associated with good health
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Feasibility of Study as Indicated by Number of Participants1 day

The feasibility of the study will be assessed by analyzing the recruitment of subjects to the study and the compliance of recruited subjects to the protocol. Feasibility will be defined as able to screening, approaching, and enrolling 25 eligible patients to the pilot study.

Acceptability of Study as Indicated by Percentage of Participation8 months

The willingness of patients to enroll and complete the basic study procedures. Acceptability will be defined as low drop out-rates (\<15%), completion of quality of life surveys, and \>85% usage of the pedometers.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Increased Physical Activity Characteristics8 months

Increased physical activity characteristics will be assessed through the Godin Leisure Time and International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and questionnaires on barriers to and self-efficacy of exercise.

Health-related Quality of Life8 months

Health-related quality of life and physical activity characteristics will be measured during the pre, peri, and post-operative period. This will be done through PROMIS surveys, which assess physical function, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and ability to participate in and satisfaction with social roles/activities.
