NCT00334113

Brief Summary

The overarching objective of this study is to develop an innovative strategy to address the problems of obesity and diabetes by promoting exercise adoption. An automated telephone intervention will be developed that can be used to enhance exercise adoption over a twelve month period in a population of overweight or obese veterans with Type 2 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 7-Day Physical Activity Recall (PAR)

    A self-report measure of minutes of physical activity over the previous 7 days.

    six months

Study Arms (2)

Arm 1

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this arm will meet with an exercise physiologist and obtain an exercise prescription for a walking program. In addition, they will recieve an intervention that will be delivered over an automated telephone system (TLC-PED). These automated phone calls with voice response and voice recognition capabilities will occur weekly over a 6 month period. During these calls, participants' physical activity will be monitored, new physical activities goals will be set, information about physical activity and the associated health benefits will be provided, and barriers to physical activity will be explored.

Behavioral: TLC-PED

Arm 2

NO INTERVENTION

This is the "treatment as usual" condition. Participants in this condition will also have 2 sessions with an exercise physiologist and will receive an exercise prescription for a home based walking program. The will not receive the automated phone calls each week that are designed to motivate physical activity.

Interventions

TLC-PEDBEHAVIORAL

Telephone-Linked Care - Promoting Exercise for Diabetes (TLC-PED), a method that uses interactive voice response and speech recognition technologies, will be developed to provide individualized and personalized motivational messages using automated telephone calls for veterans with Type 2 diabetes who participate in a home based walking program.
