Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

For youth with chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and early mortality. Physical activity is a well-recognized determinant of health and quality of life, but, youth with CKD are less physically active than their healthy peers. Identification of effective strategies to increase physical activity in youth with CKD is paramount to improving outcomes. The investigators will test the efficacy of a 12-week physical activity intervention in 64 adolescents with CKD. Guided by the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework, an optimization trial will identify intervention components that increase average daily moderate to vigorous physical activity by 15 min/day, a clinically meaningful increase. The components will be grounded in established behavioral change theories and be delivered via Way to Health, a web-based platform, to overcome barriers at the point of clinical care where time and resources are limited.

Study Design

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

FACTORIAL

A computerized random number generated by the Way to Health platform will assign children to 1 of 16 study conditions for a 12-week intervention period. The study conditions differ with respect to: personalized exercise plan(on vs off), step goals (ramp-up vs fixed), financial incentive (on vs off), and personalized feedback (on vs off). Our design includes one constant: all participants need to self-monitor their physical activity by wearing the FitBit to allow for daily capture of moderate to vigourous physical activity and step counts. The intervention period is therefore designed to test the effectiveness of 4 components, each with two levels, using a factorial design.
