简要总结
Persons with disabilities (PwD) commonly experience fatigue, which often negatively impacts their everyday lives. Management of this symptom can be challenging. Satisfaction with current interventions to manage fatigue is low among PwD and there is a desire for more personalized approaches. The purpose of this study is to develop and test a fatigue self-management intervention using mobile phones that is personalized to each person's needs.
详细描述
Persons with disabilities (PwD) commonly experience fatigue, which adversely impacts their everyday lives. Information to manage and improve fatigue can be complicated and overwhelming. Little has been done to link mobile health (mHealth) approaches with patient activation and self-management to effectively address fatigue for PwD. The purpose of this study is to develop and pilot-test a fatigue self-management short message service (SMS) text intervention using mobile phones to target patient activation levels in PwD. The proposed study will: (1) develop content for a fatigue self-management intervention using SMS tailored to patient activation levels in persons with multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and stroke. An advisory board made up of one physical medicine and rehabilitation physician and six PwD will provide input on the content and format for the developed content. (2) test the feasibility and acceptability of SMS to improve patient activation for fatigue self-management in PwD. The long-term goal is to improve the health of PwD by increasing their skills, confidence, and knowledge to manage fatigue and other chronic symptoms that affect their daily life.

结局指标
主要结局
Patient Activation - change in knowledge, skill and confidence for self-management
时间窗: Baseline and up to 2 weeks post intervention
The Patient Activation Measure (PAM-13) assesses four levels of activation: (1) the patient is disengaged and overwhelmed, (2) the patient is becoming aware but still struggling, (3) the patient takes action, and (4) the patient maintains behaviors. The psychometric properties of the PAM have been assessed in multiple healthcare settings. Raw PAM scores can be transformed into a continuous (0-100) scale, where higher scores represent higher levels of patient activation. In order to target self-management strategies, participants will proceed through these levels.
