简要总结
Healthy lifestyles are crucial for preventing chronic diseases. This study evaluated the effectiveness of mHealth intervention program in adopting healthy lifestyles.
详细描述
Healthy lifestyles are crucial for preventing chronic diseases. Nonetheless, approximately 90% of university students regularly engage in at least one unhealthy lifestyle. Mobile smart devices-based health interventions (mHealth) that incorporate theoretical frameworks regarding behavioral change in interaction with the environment may provide an appealing and cost-effective approach for promoting sustainable adaptations of healthier lifestyles.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of mHealth intervention program compared to traditional (face-to-face) program in adopting healthy lifestyles among students of the Faculty of Nursing.

结局指标
主要结局
Sleep quality scale.
时间窗: Assessed just before and immediately after the intervention
It assesses the quality of sleep for the last one month and consists of 28 questions with four Likert scale (rarely, sometimes, often, and almost always). The total score can range from 0 to 84, with higher scores demoting more more frequent sleep disturbances (Good quality of sleep ≤ 28, Fair 29 - ≤ 56, and poor \> 56).
Physical activity time and levels of participants as assessed by Global/International Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ/IPAQ).
时间窗: Assessed just before and immediately after the intervention
The total weekly time spent on physical activity and the time spent in each domain (work, transportation, and recreational time) are determined by multiplying the number of days per week in each category by the average daily duration. Minutes per week in each category are then multiplied by metabolic equivalents (MET). The overall GPAQ score is described as "Low" if \< 600 MET-minutes/week, "Moderate" if = 600-1500 MET-minutes/week, or "High" if \> 1500 MET-minutes/week.
Dietary assessment using Food frequency questionnaire (FFQ).
时间窗: Assessed just before and immediately after the intervention
It consists of 140 food items categorized under 27 categories with three Likert scale (usually eat, sometimes eat, and rarely eat). Score of 27-45 indicates bad healthy choices, 46-63 indicate fair healthy choices, and 64-81 indicate good healthy choices.
次要结局
- The weight in kilograms and height in meters will be combined to report the body mass index (BMI) in kg/m2.(Assessed just before and immediately after the intervention)
- Blood Pressure Level assessed with the sphygmomanometer.(Assessed just before and immediately after the intervention)
