简要总结
In this project, a web-based exercise program is developed in co-creation between specialized health care, the Norwegian Association for Rheumatic diseases (NRF) and a group of experienced patient representatives. The project emerges from the evidence that exercise is recommended as first-line treatment for patients with chronic diseases like hip- and knee-osteoarthritis (OA). However, the number of patients in need of targeted exercise will increase considerably the next decades, and their treatment needs cannot be fully handled within the health care system. Development of innovative and effective treatment trajectories and follow-up strategies is urgently required. Peer-support is recognized as an effective way to increase patients' long-term adherence to exercise. Thus, patient-organizations may be an unutilized resource in support and follow-up of patients who need long-term exercise as part of their treatment plan. After discharge from examination in hospital, patients with hip/knee OA will be recruited to follow-up in a novel web-based, peer-supported exercise program, and the feasibility of the intervention will be evaluated.
详细描述
The study will be conducted as a pre-post single-arm feasibility study comprising 50 participants.
The main objective of the study will be to evaluate the feasibility of the web-based, peer-supported exercise intervention in patients with hip and/or knee OA.
Specific research objectives are:
- to assess feasibility of intervention delivery, data collection, eligibility and inclusion/exclusion criteria and intervention fidelity
- to assess the responsiveness of relevant primary and secondary outcome measures
In the feasibility study, all participants will be allocated to an intervention group, receiving a 12-week web-based, peer-supported aerobic exercise program including weekly motivational messages. Patients between 40 and 80 years of age that are not candidates for surgery will be recruited from Diakonhjemmet Hospital, Oslo, Norway.

Proportion of participants providing activity monitor data (at least 4 days, including one weekend day, with minimum 10 hours recording per day) at baseline.
Feasibility: proportion completing treadmill test
时间窗: baseline
Proportion of participants completing the indirect maximal cardiorespiratory exercise test according to test-protocol at baseline.
Eligible: proportion eligible
时间窗: baseline
Proportion of potentially eligible participants approached that are invited.
Recruitment: proportion enrolled
时间窗: baseline
Proportion of eligible patients enrolled.
Retention: proportion of enrolled participants
时间窗: baseline and 12 weeks
Proportion of enrolled participants providing data at 12 week post-test.
Adverse events: number of adverse events
时间窗: 12 weeks
Total number of adverse events (by cause if possible) evaluated by answers at post-test: The four questions addressing possible adverse events: 1) Have you carried out any type of treatment during the last 3 months? (With treatment we mean medication, physical exercise, self-management course or any alternative treatments) (yes/no), 2) If yes, have you experienced any adverse event as a result of the treatment? (yes/no). 3) If yes, which adverse events as a result of treatment? 4) In your opinion, which treatment(s) do you think the adverse event was/were caused by? (medication, physical exercise, self-management course, alternative treatments, other) (Elaborate).
