Mobile Health Biometrics to Enhance Exercise and Physical Activity Adherence in Type 2 Diabetes (MOTIVATE-T2D): a decentralised feasibility randomised controlled trial delivered across the UK and Canada.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Assess the feasibility of a mobile health (mHealth)-supported home-delivered physical activity (PA) intervention (MOTIVATE-T2D) in people with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Design

Feasibility multicentre, parallel group, randomised controlled trial (RCT).

Setting

Participants were recruited from England and Canada using a decentralised design.

Participants

Adults (40-75 years) recently diagnosed with T2D (5-24 months).

Interventions

Participants were randomised 1:1 to intervention (MOTIVATE-T2D) or active control groups.
