Trial Outcomes & Findings for Patient-reported Monitoring of Symptoms and Spirometry Via the patientMpower Platform in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (NCT NCT03104322)

NCT ID: NCT03104322

Last Updated: 2019-04-02

Results Overview

Questionnaire-based assessment of response to questions: \[pMp = patientMpower platform\] 1. instructions for using pMp were clear 2. pMp helped me take the correct dose medicines 3. pMp helped me to take my medicines at the correct time 4. pMp helped me to reach my personal exercise goal 5. pMp helped me to walk further 6. pMp gave me a greater sense of control 7. useful to be able to record the impact of lung fibrosis on QoL 8. pMp encouraged me to look at the informational videos 9. preference for using pMp 10. difficulty in using pMp 11. effect of pMp on impact on daily life 12. tiring/irritating to use pMp 13. want to continue using pMp after study 14. would recommend pMp to others Possible responses Q1-8, Q12: strongly agree/agree/disagree/strongly disagree Q9: yes/no preference/no Q10: very easy/easy/difficult/very difficult Q11: positive/negative/open text Q13,14: yes/no

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Population: Patients did not record medication compliance during study timeframe.

Compliance recorded by patient via patientMpower platform daily

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline visit

Population: patients who provided at least 1 IPF-PROM; insufficient data for analysis of time trends; Baseline values reported

12-item questionnaire with 4 domains (psychological experience of dyspnoea, physical experience of dyspnoea, emotional well-being, energy levels). 3 questions/domain asking frequency of symptom or its impact in the time interval since last response. Four possible responses to each question: none of the time/some of the time/most of the time/all of the time. Numerical score assigned to each response 1/2/3/4 (respectively). Impact on domain characterised by mean score for each of 3 questions in that domain. One question on overall quality of life with responses: excellent/good/fair/poor/very poor. Numerical score assigned to each response 1/2/3/4/5 respectively. Low score better outcome; high score worse outcome (for all responses).
