Smartwatch-based Intervention for Cardiovascular Health (SWITCH)

Summary

This study aims to employ a cluster randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an mHealth-Based Multi-faceted Cardiovascular Health Intervention Model among Overweight/Obese Individuals with Cardiometabolic Preconditions, thereby providing theoretical foundations and practical guidance for the prevention and management of this population.

Conditions

• Prehypertension
• Borderline Dyslipidemia
• Overweight , Obesity
• Prediabetes

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Smartwatch-Based Multi-Faceted Behavioral Intervention Model Led by Exercise and Dietary Interventions, Supported by Primary Medical Staff, Along with the Distribution of Health Education Manuals

The intervention model integrates multiple functions including data collection, intelligent analysis, and personalized intervention, and delivers targeted management for the target population. Among these, the intervention content includes the smartwatch-based comprehensive behavioral intervention model adopted in the model construction phase; for overweight/obese individuals with cardiometabolic preconditions, a customized combination of implementation strategies is provided. Intervention measures include smartwatch-based indicator monitoring and risk warning, diet and exercise reporting, monitoring, and goal setting/planning, community interaction, collaborative management by medical staff and family members.In addition, routine health education will be provided during face-to-face visits at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.

BEHAVIORAL

Face-to-face health education sessions

At baseline, 3 months, and 6 months, participants will attend follow-up visits at primary healthcare institutions in the project areas and receive usual care based on guideline-recommended health education manuals, which provide comprehensive lifestyle intervention advice.
