NCT01325376

Brief Summary

This is a six month lifestyle management study to compare the effects of iWell; a dynamic online interactive technology to a self-directed program in overweight or obese individuals. The primary aim is to test the hypothesis that dynamic online interactive technology intervention is more effective than self-directed program in obtaining and maintaining weight loss and other biometric improvements.

Study Arms (2)

Self directed

NO INTERVENTION
Behavioral: Self directed

Technology assisted health behavior

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The intervention arm will have access to a dynamic online environment with social networking and device data uploads that include activity data, weight data and laboratory data at frequent intervals to nudge optimal health behavior.

Behavioral: Technology assisted health behavior

Interventions

Web-based interactive program using an hpod sensor that tracks physical activity as well as biometric parameters into the iWell server and is transmitted to the internet site via the users PC. Also serves as a social networking site.

Also known as: DOIT Dynamic online interactive technology
Technology assisted health behavior
Self directedBEHAVIORAL

Receives support and encouragement with minimal contact. Receives printed lifestyle guidelines with diet and physical activity recommendations.

Also known as: Standard care
Self directed
