Summary

The overall goal of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability and potential effects of a culturally tailored 12-week peer-based physical activity intervention compared with a control group, among young sedentary Canadian South Asian women. Specific objectives are: 1) To determine the feasibility (recruitment, retention, engagement, and acceptability) of implementing the SATHI intervention, and 2) To determine the effect of the SATHI intervention on physical activity, anthropometric risk (waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, and body mass index), and self-efficacy.

This is an innovative, gender-specific and culturally tailored primary prevention intervention for South Asian women who are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Information obtained from this pilot trial will inform a larger multi-centred trial and will also help inform health care providers and researchers about novel means of researching, educating and engaging South Asians in healthy lifestyle behaviours relevant to their daily lives.
