Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Study 2: Solo Cycling GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Exercise bike delivered to their home, custom fit to their needs and installed in a safe location, sessions will consist of up to cycling without a partner for a target duration and intensity.
Group II: Study 2: Social Cycling GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Exercise bike delivered to their home, custom fit to their needs and installed in a safe location, sessions will consist of up to 30 minutes of cycling while engaged in social interaction with a research staff member, thus providing a social/community aspect that would not otherwise be present.
Group III: Study 1: Social Cycling GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Exercise bike delivered to their home, custom fit to their needs and installed in a safe location, sessions will consist of up to 30 minutes of cycling while engaged in social interaction with a research staff member, thus providing a social/community aspect that would not otherwise be present.
Group IV: Study 1: Normal Care Control GroupActive Control1 Intervention
Study 1: Normal Care Control Group [will crossover and complete the cycling intervention following the initial 6-months]

"Affirmative. The clinical trial, which was originally posted on the 25th of August 2021 and recently updated on September 3rd is seeking participants. In total 52 patients will be admitted across 1 medical site."

Answered by AI

What principal aim is this research attempting to fulfill?

"This research trial, which will be evaluated at baseline, post-test (~6 months) and 3 month follow up (~9 months), has the primary goal of assessing Change in Standardized Gait Analysis: Gait Velocity. Additionally, it seeks to measure Change in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (a 0-21 scale where higher scores denote greater difficulty sleeping), Change in Timed Up and Go Test (the time taken for a participant to stand up from sitting, walk three metres away then return to their seat again) as well as Change in Fall Frequency (assessed by six questions regarding fall rate over two weeks/month/six months etc"
