Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Physical inactivity is a major risk behaviour with a potential for causing premature death, particularly among people with mobility limitations, such as knee osteoarthritis.

Digital motivational interventions (such as SMS) can motive to a healthy behaviour including increased physical activity.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if motivational text messages following an exercise intervention to improve mobility limitations will change the physical activity level in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

This study is designed as pilot randomized controlled trial, with equal randomization (1:1). Eligible participants will be randomised into one of two groups (intervention or control) after completing their baseline measurements. The intervention group will receive weekly motivational text messages and the control group will not receive any attention from the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SMS text message

The content of the text messages is developed based on recommendation and advice from the Danish Health Authority about the importance of regular daily physical activity.

For 6 weeks, the text messages will be send three times per week, twice during the week days and once in the weekend, based on previous experience with SMS as motivation for chronic pain patients.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Motivational SMS text message

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Motivational text messages delivered to the participants' mobile phones. The text messages contain motivational text and advice on physical activity.

No intervention

No attention from the study

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
