The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of an outreach campaign designed to increase engagement with Pack Health, a Quest Diagnostics wellness program providing individual health coaching for weight management and diabetes prevention. While employee wellness and disease-management programs have the potential to improve wellbeing and reduce healthcare costs, their effectiveness is often undermined by low engagement and selection bias in participant comparisons. This study will test whether an outreach approach that auto-enrolls eligible individuals-employees and their spouses/domestic partners-into the program, with the option to opt out, can increase engagement and improve health outcomes compared to the standard invitation-based approach.
This study proposes to pilot an online intervention to support father-teen health-promoting talk about sex and relationships using Social Cognitive Theory, and to evaluate this intervention's acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy, using an Intervention Mapping approach. This study involves conducting a pilot intervention with 50 pairs of fathers and their high-school aged teens. Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed through program data such as participants' pilot enrollment, lesson feedback, and program retention, survey data and member checks through debrief interviews (5 father, 5 teens). Preliminary assessment of directionality of change in participants' health-related knowledge, self-efficacy, and outcome expectations over the course of the pilot intervention (pre- and post-intervention surveys) to determine whether a full-scale R01 is warranted.
This randomized trial aims to determine the effectiveness a virtual wellness intervention program in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants will be randomized at enrollment into two groups: immediate treatment (IT) and delayed treatment (DT) group. This study will also provide insights into the impact of these intervention's components in helping emotional, physical, and nutritional outcomes post-injury in the context of social determinants of health (SDOH).
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how a digital training platform can enhance implementation and effectiveness of a validated mHealth system, called FOCUS, in people with serious mental illness. The main question this research aims to answer is whether patients obtain similar outcomes to previous FOCUS studies when using FOCUS with clinicians trained on a newly developed digital training platform. Participants will be asked to use the FOCUS smartphone application and receive mobile health coaching from clinicians who have been trained using the digital training platform.
Conduct a quasi-experimental pre-post study of a mindfulness-enhanced, web/app-enabled, scalable Total Worker Health (TWH) program among higher stress Corrections Professionals. The primary outcomes relate to behaviors promoted by the program: being mindful/reduced stress/improved mood; healthier eating; more physical activity; greater restorative sleep; improved work-life balance and greater positive feelings about the organization.
Hypertension (HTN) is the leading modifiable cause of cardiovascular disease. Rural individuals experience challenges of the rural health divide: geographic distance from providers, social isolation, limited social resources, and high rates of low health literacy. This study evaluates a home-based blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) program that provides longitudinal health education, empathic guidance, monitoring, and adaptable patient-centered coaching to rural individuals. Participants in this study will be randomized to receive (1) HBPM with the intervention; or (2) the control, consisting of HBPM and a smartphone with a general health application (WebMD).
This is a 2-arm group-randomized hybrid effectiveness-implementation (HEI type 2) study to test an evidence-based intervention (EBI) known as Stand \& Move at Work(SMW) to reduce sedentary time in the workplace, and to test the role of expert facilitation (SMW+) for improving intervention fidelity.
The LINKED- HEARTS Program is a multi-level project that intervenes at the practice level by linking home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) with a telemonitoring platform (Sphygmo). The program incorporates team-based care by including community health workers (CHWs) and pharmacists to improve the outcomes of multiple chronic conditions (reduced blood pressure (BP), lower blood sugar, and improved kidney function). The LINKED-HEARTS Program will recruit a total of 600 adults with uncontrolled hypertension (BP ≥ 140/90 mm Hg) AND either type 2 diabetes or chronic kidney disease (CKD) across 16 community health centers or primary care practices serving high-risk adults. This cluster-randomized trial consists of two arms: (1) enhanced "usual care arm," wherein patients will be provided with Omron 10 series home BP monitors and will be managed by the patients' primary care clinicians as usual; and (2) the "intervention arm" which will integrate HBPM telemonitoring, a CHW intervention and provider-level interventions into the usual clinical care to improve BP control and provide support for self-management of chronic conditions. The study pharmacist will conduct telehealth, use the Sphygmo app and the Pharmacist Patient Care Process to collaborate with other providers to optimize pharmacologic therapy to improve hypertension outcomes and with payors to ensure consistent access to drug therapy.
The overarching goal of this work is to address the limited access to evidence-based health behavior and lifestyle interventions for youth and families most impacted by preventable chronic diseases, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. In the current project, we implement a small single-arm pilot and feasibility trial of Health Without Barriers/Salud Sin Barreras (HWB/SSB), a culturally-adapted, whole-family intensive health behavior and lifestyle intervention to 11-19-year-old adolescents and their families living in Northern Colorado. Objectives are refining the HWB/SSB community facilitator training, evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of HWB/SSB implementation, and characterizing changes in health outcomes among adolescent participants.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate an evidence-based intervention, Health Impact 360, toward the promotion of cardiovascular health (CVH), including physical, mental, and social health outcomes, among adults living in marginalized communities. Study hypotheses include: * Participants in the Health Impact 360 intervention arm will have better CVH (i.e., a higher overall LE8 score) at the 16-week endpoint compared to the control. * Participants in the Health Impact 360 intervention arm will report better mental health (i.e., a lower perceived stress score) at the 16-week endpoint compared to the control. * Participants in the Health Impact 360 intervention arm will report better social support and well-being (i.e., higher emotional support and instrumental support scores and reduced social isolation) at the 16-week endpoint compared to control. * Participants with greater intervention engagement (e.g., better session attendance) will experience greater intervention impacts across all primary and secondary outcomes relative to the minimally engaged peers. Researchers will compare outcomes among intervention participants to outcomes among delayed intervention control participants who will be invited to participate in Health Impact 360 once all endpoint measures are collected. Participants will: * Engage in group-based programming twice per week for 8 weeks * Engage in group-based programming once per week for 8 weeks * Participate in survey-based and biometric data collection at two timepoints: baseline and 16-week endpoint * Self-monitor their physical activity via a study-provided pedometer
