Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Investigation of the effect of a 3-month telemedicine-led lifestyle intervention on cardiovascular risk factors, functional indicators, in patients with metabolic syndrome.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: telemedicine lifestyle guidance
N/A

Detailed Description

The patients are using mobile phone-based nutrition diary with heart rate monitoring watch (including activity meter) connected to a mobile phone with bluetooth technology worn on a wrist. These devices, and the weight scale, blood pressure monitor are connected with bluetooth to an IT system, that transmits and displays data from these devices. the patients are using the devices during 3 months, and get instructions about lifestyle.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Active group

The active group get telemedicine devices, and lifestyle interventions.

Device: telemedicine lifestyle guidance
Telemedicine lifestyle advices are given during 3 months, based on telemonitoring system data.

No Intervention: Comparator Group

The comparator group get the evidence based treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change of abdominal circumference [3 months]

    To investigate the effect of telemedicine-assisted lifestyle intervention on anthropometric parameters, with particular reference to the reduction of abdominal circumference in patients with metabolic syndrome.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4. [3 months]

    The safety of the device system

  2. Impact of the system to the cardiovascular risk [3 months]

    In patients with metabolic syndrome, high cardiovascular risk, the impact of complex lifestyle interventions initiated in different environments and then telemedicine, including lifestyle and physical activity, on the known cardiovascular risk factors and functional indicators
