Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of Chair Yoga on Elders With Osteoarthritis (NCT NCT02113410)
NCT ID: NCT02113410
Last Updated: 2019-09-17
Results Overview
The 8-item PROMIS Pain Inference-Short Form- V. 1.0-8a was administered to measure self-reported consequences of pain on various aspects of the participant's life.Scores can range from 8 (minimum) to 40 (maximum) and higher scores indicate more interference with daily activities. This tool is normed on the U.S. general population, with an average score of 50 and a standard deviation of 10, to report interference within the previous 7 days on 5-point response scale ranging from not at all to very much. This self-report measure was developed by the NIH. NIH has rigorously tested the construct validity and reliability of all of the PROMIS tools and all have been shown to be internally consistent, reliable (reliability = .96 to .99, for PROMIS-PI SF) and valid (construct validity). A higher score represent a severe pain level.

Participant Flow
Participants were recruited from two settings-a senior housing facility and a senior day center-through an information session conducted at each site by the principal investigators and Project Directors. There were 3 cohorts (waves) in the study. In each cohort, recruitment was started 2 weeks prior to the each intervention.

Health Education Program (HEP)
To control for attention and time, HEP participants attended twice-weekly 45-minute sessions for 8 weeks led by health care providers trained by the principal investigators. The instructors received two 4-hour days being trained on HEP teaching instructions and serving as an arbitrator of any disagreements between participants on a certain topic. HEP participants discussed general health education information and specific facts regarding OA; they did not participate in any form of yoga.

Sit 'N' Fit Chair Yoga
The chair yoga intervention consisted of twice-weekly 45-minute sessions incorporating four components-physical postures, breathing, deep relaxation, and meditation-while using the support of a chair. The yoga instructor at each site was certified by the Yoga Alliance and spent two 8-hour days being trained on the Sit "N" Fit Chair Yoga program by the program developer.

The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index was administered to measure self-reported. The tool, recommended for osteoarthritis clinical trials, is a self-administered scale with 24 questions using a Likert-type scale. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index was administered to measure self-reported OA symptoms (pain, stiffness, functional ability). The tool is a self-administered scale with 24 items (pain \[5 items\], stiffness \[2 items\], physical function \[17 items\]). A score range for each subscale for each scale (minimum-maximum) is Pain 0-20, stiffness 0-8, physical function 0-68. Higher scores indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations. For this study, we used a subscale of pain (5 items), stiffness (2 items), physical function (17 items). A total score of all subscales can range from 0 (minimum) to 96 (maximum). The WOMAC demonstrated a Cronbach's alpha of .95 for persons with OA.

The PROMIS Physical Function Short Form-V 1.0-12a was administered to measure physical function. The domain of physical function assesses self-reported ability rather than actual performance of physical activities. Scores can range from 7 (minimum) to 60 (maximum). The higher scores represent better physical function.This includes functioning of upper extremities (dexterity), lower extremities (mobility), and central regions (neck back), as well as instrumental activities of daily living. Each question has five response options, ranging in value from 1 (unable to do) to 5 (able to do without any difficulty).

The Gait Speed Test was used to measure physical function. Gait speed measurement is considered highly reliable in older adults without known impairments that should affect gait. For measuring gait speed, the unit of measurement is the second. Intrarater reliability (N = 19-24) and test-retest reliability (N = 19-41) have been reported as high (ICC = .90-.96, r = 89-100). The Pearson correlation coefficient is r = .93 and ICC = .78 for test-retest reliability for gait speed in older adults.

The Berg Balance Scale was administered to measure changes in balance function. The performance-based Berg Balance Scale contains 14 items applying a 5-point scale for each item (0 = lowest level of function to 4 = highest level of function); scores range from 0 to 56. Higher scores indicate higher fall risk. The Berg Balance Scale is the gold standard assessment of balance, obtaining good to excellent intra-rater reliability (ICC = 0.68-0.99) and interrater reliability (ICC = 0.88-0.98) and good internal validity.

The PROMIS Ability to Participate in Social Activities-V 2.0- SF-8a was administered to measure the perceived ability to perform usual social roles and activities. Items are worded negatively in terms of perceived limitations (5 = Never to 1 = Always), but responses are reverse-coded .Scores can range from 8 to 40; higher scores indicate lower ability to participate in social roles.

Timeframe: 6 monthsPopulation: Community-dwelling Older adults (age 65 years or older) who are diagnosed with osteoarthritis.
The Life Satisfaction Index-Short Form was administered to measure general life satisfaction in participants. The 12-item index offers a 6-point scale for each item (1 = strongly agree to 6 = strongly disagree; for Items 2, 4, 5, and 6, the responses are reversed. It ranges 12 (minimum)-72 (maximum); higher scores indicate higher level of life satisfaction. Reliability of this instrument when used with 654 older adults produced a Cronbach's alpha of .95, with a goodness of fit of \> .90. It has a correlated reliability of .90 with the long form.
