Background summary
Last years, more attention has been paid for prevention of diseases, but also
for influencing the progression of chronic diseases in a positive way. For
diabetes and cardiovascular diseases enough exercise and a healthy diet are
imporant factors to prevent worsening of the disease. Care group Syntein has
developed a lifestyleprogram in which patients are educated how they can
exercise enough and what a healhty diet means.
About the influence of financial incentives on physical activity behaviour are
positive en negative expectations. Hardly any research has been done to what
extent financial incentives has a positive influence on physical activity
behaviour for interventions from the health care setting. In this study, the
effectivity and costeffectivity of a financial incentive on physical behavior
that is attached to the lifestyleprogram of Syntein. De results of this study
will contribute to insights about the use of financial incentives for the
promotion of physical activity in the health care setting.
Study objective
The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy, effectivity and
costeffectivity of financial incentives for the promotion of physical activity
in the health care setting.
Study design
The study is a controlled clinical trial with three intervention groups that
will be divided by region. The division of the groups by region was chosen
because of several methodological reasons.
Intervention
Alle deelnemers krijgen een leefstijlprogramma aangeboden welke in het
reguliere zorgaanbod zit. Van de drie groepen zal één groep fungeren als
controle groep en zullen de deelnemers alleen het leefstijlprogramma krijgen.
De andere twee groepen krijgen het leefstijlprogramma en daarbij een financiële
prikkel. Deze financiële prikkel is in beide groepen anders. De daadwerkelijke
interventie in dit onderzoek zijn de 2 financiële prikkels. The actual
intervention is the financial incentive.
Study burden and risks
Participants of the trial will complete one extra fitness test at 52 weeks
compared to the patients who do not participate in the trial and only
participatie in the lifestyle program. Besides that, at every measurement the
participants have to fill out some additional questionnaires.
