Prevention of Lifestyle-related Disorders Based on Functional Examinations
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Lifestyle-related Condition
In brief
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to examine the effects of functional examinations and feedback/support on healthy 40-year-olds. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Does feedback and motivational interviewing after testing physical function motivate inactive middle-aged people to increase their physical activity level? • Does the intervention lead to health benefits over time - less pain, better function, higher health-related quality of life, fewer risk factors for lifestyle-related illness? Participants will: • undergo medical and functional health examinations, • their physical activity level will be measured, • receive feedback and advice based on both parts of the examinations, • receive a functional profile, • be supported in goalsetting for lifestyle changes. Researchers will compare with a control group who, after the examinations, receive feedback only from the medical examination to see if participants become more physically active, achieve better function, become more motivated to make lifestyle changes, reduce risk factors for lifestyle-related illness, achieve health benefits and better health-related quality of life.

Who can join
Age: 39 and older, up to 40. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: accepted.
You may qualify if…
- 40 years of age
- Relatively normal general mobility - can walk without support and have no self-reported difficulties with using all four extremities - in order to be able to perform standardised functional performance tests.
- Self-assessed as physically inactive (level 1 or 2 on the Saltin Grimby Physical Activity Level Scale) as inactive people stand to gain most from this intervention.
You may not qualify if…
- Verbally self-reported physical activity at level three or four on Saltin Grimby Physical Activity Level Scale.
- Severe mental illness or intellectual impairment, as participants will be expected to fill out questionnaires and should have the ability to follow healthcare advice independently should they choose to do so.
- Pregnancy and/or on-going treatment requiring hospital-based services, to increase probability of baseline values which reflect usual capacity.
- No language restrictions are planned but participants needing interpreter help should arrange this themselves.
