• 1 other identifier: CHPP-Lung
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 4,496
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate if focused information of spirometry in the invitation to preventive health checks will increase the attendance compared with a standard invitation to preventive health checks.

Conditions

Spirometry; Patient Participation; Health Literacy; Lung Diseases

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The percentage of participants attending the health check compared between the groups

  Primary outcome measure is effect of the focused information in the invitations on attendance.

  one-year recruitment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• the percentage of participants with abnormal spirometry assessed at the preventive health

  one-year recruitment

Study Arms (2)

Invitation with focused information of spirometry

EXPERIMENTAL

Behavioral: focused information of spirometry in the invitation

Standard invitition

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Behavioral: standard invitation

Interventions

focused information of spirometry in the invitation BEHAVIORAL

Focused information of spirometry in the invitation to the preventive health check compose the intervention in this trial.

Invitation with focused information of spirometry

standard invitation BEHAVIORAL

The active comparator will receive a standard invitation to the preventive health checks. The preventive health checks in the active comparator group and the intervention group are identical.
