NCT02022566

Brief Summary

Physical activity level is measured at baseline and after 3 and 12 months after structured information and individually adapted exercise for patients with osteoarthritis in hip or knee. The hypothesis of this study is that a supported self management of osteoarthritis program will increase the level of physical activity in patients with osteoarthritis in hip or knee. The second hypothesis is that patients with osteoarthritis in knee will increase their level of physical activity more than patients with osteoarthritis in hip.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Level of Physical Activity/Sedentary Time

    The level of physical activity will be monitored by a GT1M Actigraph which is a small uniaxial accelerometer that measures vertical acceleration and deceleration. Accelerometer output is an activity "count" which is the weighted sum of the number of accelerations measured over a period (e.g. in this case 10 seconds). Participants will be instructed to wear the accelerometer from the morning, and continuously (except for water activities) until going to bed at night, for seven consecutive days. The accelerometer will be attached to a belt to wear around the waist with accelerometer placement on the right hip. The account of minutes in sedentary time will be calculated and the average of minutes in one week will be used.

    Baseline, 3 months and 12 months

  • Level of Physical Activity/Low Activity

    Level of physical activity will be monitored by an accelerometer at baseline and at 3 and 12 months after the supported self-management of osteoarthritis program using an accelerometer. The GT1M Actigraph is a small uniaxial accelerometer that measures vertical acceleration and deceleration. Accelerometer output is an activity "count" which is the weighted sum of the number of accelerations measured over a period (e.g. in this case 10 seconds). Participants will be instructed to wear the accelerometer from morning, and continuously (except for water activities) until going to bed at night, for seven consecutive days. The accelerometer will be attached to a belt to wear around the waist with accelerometer placement on the right hip.

    baseline, 3 months and12 months

  • Level of Physical Activity/Moderate-vigorous Activity

    Level of physical activity will be monitored by an accelerometer at baseline and at 3 and 12 months after the supported self-management of osteoarthritis program using an accelerometer. The GT1M Actigraph is a small uniaxial accelerometer that measures vertical acceleration and deceleration. Accelerometer output is an activity "count" which is the weighted sum of the number of accelerations measured over a period (e.g. in this case 10 seconds). Participants will be instructed to wear the accelerometer from morning, and continuously (except for water activities) until going to bed at night, for seven consecutive days. The accelerometer will be attached to a belt to wear around the waist with accelerometer placement on the right hip.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Health Realted Quality of Life

    baseline, 3 months and 12 months

  • Visual Analog Scale for Pain

    baseline, 3 months and 12 months

  • Arthritis Self-efficacy Scale/Pain (ASES)

Study Arms (2)

Supported self-management of osteoarthrits program

EXPERIMENTAL

Treatment with an supported self-management program for osteoarthritis.

Behavioral: A supported self management of osteoarthritis program

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

No intervention

Interventions

Three theoretical sessions, each of about 90 minutes, held as group sessions with about 10 participants in each group. After the intervention patients are offered an individual exercise program, and the opportunity to practice this program together with others under supervision of a physical therapist for 6 weeks.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age between 18 and 75 years old.
  • Patients with clinically verified OA, coming to see a physical therapist for the Supported self-management of osteoarthritis program.

You may not qualify if:

  • Other serious disorders causing hip or knee pain (e.g. tumor, rheumatic arthritis, sequel hip fracture).
  • Other symptoms more aggravating than the OA problem (e.g. chronic pain, fibromyalgia, cardio-respiratory dysfunction, spinal condition).
  • Total joint replacement surgery within the past 12 months.
  • Other surgery of knee or hip within the past 3 months.
  • Unable to read and understand Swedish and follow verbal and visual instructions.
