The EMPOWER-SUSTAIN e-Health intervention to improve patient activation and self-management behaviours among individuals with metabolic syndrome in primary care: study protocol for a pilot randomised controlled trial. Trials, 21: 311. pp. 1-16. ISSN 1745-6215 (2020)
Abstract
Epidemiological studies conducted in various parts of the world have clearly demonstrated that metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an increasing global health problem, not only in Western societies but also in Asian populations. Web-based and mobile phone-based self-management applications have been proven to be effective in improving self-management behaviour of patients with MetS components (i.e., diabetes or hypertension). However, evidence is lacking in terms of their effectiveness specifically for patients with MetS. The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and potential effectiveness of the EMPOWER-SUSTAIN Self-Management e-Health Intervention in improving activation and self-management behaviours among patients with MetS. This paper presents the study protocol.
