Brief Summary:
The overarching aim is to develop and deploy a multidomain intervention delivered on a mobile application to help older adults reduce their risk for dementia by improving a set of modifiable lifestyle risk factors associated with cognitive decline/dementia. The targeted domains are physical activity, diet, and cognitively stimulating activity. This registration concerns the Proof-of-concept study which will examine if individual parts of the intervention program achieve a clinically significant degree of change in the targeted behavioral risk outcomes. It is expected that following the program, at least 50% of participants will show evidence of a clinically significant degree of change in the behavioral risk outcome targeted by the intervention, when compared to baseline.
Detailed Description:
There are encouraging indications from observational and prospective studies that late life multidomain lifestyle interventions can reduce the risk of cognitive decline and dementia, as well as improve cognition. However, these studies raise major issues related to scalability and adherence which can be addressed by relying on technology. These studies mainly used intensive and costly face-to-face interventions that are not easily implemented on a large scale. Furthermore, there are challenges with the adherence to all the components of a multi-domain lifestyle program.
Technology-delivered interventions have the potential to overcome some of the limitations of traditional face-to-face interventions. They confer numerous advantages including scalability of use in a real-world setting while limiting geographical constraints and other logistical challenges such as clinic attendance requirements. Such delivery modes also offer user convenience (e.g., undertaken at home and flexible schedule) and reduced costs associated with large-scale deployment of studies and programs.
In addition to the inclusion of technology, the success of health promotion interventions may also be improved by integrating models of lifestyle habit patterns and behaviour change determinants. The coach-based intervention will integrate behavioural change techniques based on the Behaviour Change Wheel developed by Michie. The coach intervention approach will also be guided by the Transtheoretical model of behaviour change principles proposed by Prochaska and DiClemente, and Motivational Interviewing techniques described by Rollnick and Miller.
The Proof-of-Concept study is a 10-week pre-post within-subject parallel group treatment-only study. There will be three single-domain groups (diet; physical activity or cognitive engagement), and one multidomain group. Participants will receive up to 9 weekly coach-assisted counselling sessions. The goal is to recruit up to 55 participants with at least one of the target risk factors : unhealthy diet, low level of cognitively stimulating activity or physical activity). Participants with a single risk factor will be invited to the single-domain condition for which they have a risk. Participants with multiple risk factors will be invited to the multidomain condition. The risk level for each domain will be examined before and after the intervention to assess whether the intervention has induced a clinically significant change.
