Objective Determine the feasibility of using a physical-activity behavior-change (PABC) intervention for increasing physical activity and reducing disability in Veterans 1–5 years following dysvascular lower-limb amputation (LLA). Design Cross-over, feasibility trial Setting VA Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center and Veterans Homes Participants 32 Veterans with dysvascular LLA (1–5 years after major LLA) Intervention The home-based study, using telerehabilitation technology, is intended to reduce participant burden by removing transportation and time barriers. Participants will be randomized into two participation periods of three months (Months 1–3 and 4–6). PABC intervention will occur Months 1–3 for GROUP1 and Months 4–6 for GROUP2. During PABC Intervention, participants engage in weekly video interaction with a physical therapist, who uses a collaborative approach to develop self-monitoring, barrier identification, problem solving and action planning skills to improve physical activity. GROUP2 will participate in a no physical activity intervention, attention control in Months 1–3. GROUP1 will have a no contact, intervention “wash-out” period in Months 4–6. Main outcome measures Feasibility will be determined using measures of 1) participant retention, 2) dose goal attainment, 3) participant acceptability, 4) safety, and 5) initial effect size. Effect size will be based on accelerometer-based physical activity and self-report disability using the Late-Life Function and Disability Index. Conclusions This study focuses on a prevalent and understudied population with low physical activity and high levels of disability due to dysvascular LLA. The results of this study will guide future development of targeted rehabilitation research to improve long term physical activity and disability outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
