Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a home-based exercise intervention on walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease. In 200 patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD), the investigators are conducting a randomized controlled trial to determine whether a patient-centered home-based exercise program improves walking ability, physical activity, mobility, pain, and social functioning, compared to a usual care group.

Home-based exercise intervention

The home-based exercise intervention focuses on walking exercise and consists of two phases. Phase I (weeks 1-4) consists of four on-site visits to an exercise facility, where participants will meet the telephone coach, learn to use the Fitbit activity monitor, become familiar with the study website, learn behavioral skills necessary for long-term adherence to home-based exercise, and get started on their exercise program. Phase II (weeks 5-36) is entirely home-based and includes a) use of the Fitbit for self-monitoring; and b) regularly scheduled telephone calls from the study telephone coach to monitor and support participants' home exercise activity' c) use of the study website; d) optional group telephone calls.
