A Blended Residential/Telehealth Lifestyle Intervention to Improve Cardiovascular Health and Manage Pain in Adults With Spinal Cord Injury.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of onsite and telehealth programs for
individuals with spinal cord injury. The primary aim of this study is to compare the
effectiveness of a blended 5-day onsite health promotion program followed by a 12-month
telehealth package composed of exercise, nutrition, and mindfulness, to a 12-month
telehealth-only package in individuals with spinal cord injury. The investigators hypothesize
that the blended onsite and telehealth program will achieve better gains in fitness, dietary
control, body composition, and pain management scores across a one-year period in comparison
to the telehealth-only group. The secondary objective of this study is to examine changes in
psychosocial mediators between the two groups to determine if key social cognitive theory
constructs were significantly different between the two groups. The investigators hypothesize
that the blended onsite and telehealth program will achieve better improvements in these
outcomes compared to the telehealth only group.
