Summary
This trial is testing the feasibility, fidelity, and effectiveness of an online physical activity intervention for people with chronic SCI. The outcomes will measure enrollment, retention, engagement, and changes in exercise behavior and perceptions.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who have had a spinal cord injury (SCI) for over a year, need to use a wheelchair because of SCI, and have internet access. They must get doctor's approval to start moderate exercise and agree to participate in the study. People can't join if they're pregnant, already active enough per CDCP guidelines, or have medical conditions making exercise unsafe.
What is being tested?
The WOWii Program is being tested for its ability to be scaled up and delivered virtually through rehabilitation settings. The study will look at how easy it is to enroll people and keep them engaged, how well the program is delivered as planned, and whether it effectively increases physical activity among participants with chronic SCI.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves an exercise program designed for individuals with SCI, potential side effects may include muscle soreness or strain from physical activity. However, specific side effects are not detailed as the focus is on feasibility and effectiveness of virtual delivery.
