简要总结
In prior research the Mobility and Vitality Lifestyle Program for healthy aging and weight management (MOVE UP) was effective in producing a mean loss of >= 5% body weight, with increased physical activity and reduced fatigue. This research will pilot a modified and streamlined version to see if it will be similarly effective for caregivers of family members or friends who have dementia, physical and/or developmental issues, or health problems.
详细描述
The investigators aim to test the feasibility of delivery of a modified and streamlined lifestyle program in volunteer community settings and to provide pilot data to inform the design of future randomized controlled trials that may improve physical and mental health in older adults (50-75) who are providing care for a family member or friend who has dementia, physical and/or developmental issues, or health problems. Current objectives include:
1 . Adapt and pilot the previously studied 32-session, 13-month MOVE UP intervention to a streamlined 12-session (4-month) community-based translational behavioral weight management program. The pilot program will be delivered by a staff interventionist.
- Implement and evaluate the program's impact on weight and healthy lifestyle changes, including physical performance outcomes, at 2 sites, each with at least 6 eligible obese and caregiving adults ages 50-75 years old.
