Trial Outcomes & Findings for Tele-Exercise and Multiple Sclerosis (NCT NCT03117881)

NCT ID: NCT03117881

Last Updated: 2024-12-11

Results Overview

Pain was measured by 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36). The score ranges from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating less pain. The change was estimated at Month 12 compared to baseline for DirectCAM and TeleCAM, and at Month 3 compared to baseline for rDirectCAM. The mean difference and 95% confidence interval of this outcome were reported based on mixed models analyzed using intent-to-treat approach, including all available baseline data for the outcome. Please note that while some participants completed baseline, not all outcome measures were completed. As a result, the sample size for rDirectCAM reported in this outcome was lower than the sample size reported in the Participant Flow Overview section.

DirectCAM
The DirectCAM arm receives the intervention content via therapists at participating clinics. DirectCAM: The intervention consists of a 60-minute Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) program that includes yoga, Pilates and dual-functioning exercises, which is delivered 2 times per week for the first 8 weeks and 1 time per week for the following 4 weeks at a clinic with a therapist. At the end of week 12, participants will be asked to continue the program in their home for up to 1 year post-intervention using handouts.
TeleCAM
The TeleCAM arm receives the intervention content at home using pre-loaded tablets and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system technology. TeleCAM: The intervention consists of a 60-minute Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) program that includes yoga, Pilates and dual-functioning exercises, which is delivered 2 times per week for the first 8 weeks and 1 time per week for the following 4 weeks at home via videos. At the end of week 12, participants will be asked to continue the program in their home for up to 1 year post-intervention using the videos.
rDirectCAM
The rDirectCAM arm is being implemented in response to Covid-19. The rDirectCAM arm receives the intervention content delivered remotely in real-time by therapists via videoconferencing technology. rDirectCAM: The intervention consists of a 60-minute Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) program that includes yoga, Pilates and dual-functioning exercises, which is delivered 2 times per week for the first 8 weeks and 1 time per week for the following 4 weeks by a therapist via videoconferencing technology.
