Study Details

Brief summary:

In this randomized controlled trial, study staff will randomize 130 Hispanic/Latino adults without dementia and over age 55 from Southern California and from Kaiser Permanente Washington (State) to either the culturally adapted De Pie physical activity intervention or an active comparison program focusing on general brain health topics. The purpose of this study is to determine if 12 weeks of the culturally adapted and fully remote De Pie y a Movernos intervention improves self-efficacy, habit strength, social support, and enjoyment for physical activity (PA), thus promoting adherence to moderate-intensity physical activity (MIPA) guidelines (150 minutes/week).

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: De Pie Intervention

The De Pie intervention program receives a sedentary behavior reduction and physical activity promotion intervention centered on two steps: Step 1) reduce sitting time and move more throughout the day; Step 2) if cleared by a safety assessment and blood pressure check, participants can work towards adding structured bouts of exercise into their day.

active comparator: HALT-AD Active Comparison Group

Those randomized to HALT-AD (Healthy Actions and Lifestyles to Avoid Dementia) will receive one phone call to introduce them to preventing cognitive decline through various lifestyle behaviors (e.g. stress reduction, healthy diet, healthy sleep) other than physical activity. They will be encouraged by the Health Coach upon randomization to complete one module approximately every week (there are 10 modules in total).

Interventions

De Pie Intervention

Participants are guided by a health coach trained in motivational interviewing through 6 biweekly phone sessions. Each session involves reviewing goals and problem-solving barriers from the prior 2 weeks experience; covering a topic related to Step 1 goals (or Step 2 goals if they pass the safety assessment) such as how to enjoy movement, social support, and using your surroundings; and setting goals and an action plan for the following two weeks.

Active Comparison Group: Healthy Actions And Lifestyles To Avoid Dementia (HALT-AD)

Those in the active comparison program will receive no additional health coaching sessions. They will work through the HALT-AD content at their own pace, setting goals in the online platform as they go.

Primary outcome measure

  • Change in Moderate Intensity Physical Activity (MIPA) minutes/day [ Time Frame: Baseline to 12 weeks ]
