An interventional study of Motivational Interviewing in Peripheral Arterial Disease, sponsored by Tracie Collins, MD, MPH. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2012-07-20.
Sponsored by Tracie Collins, MD, MPH · Not applicable and Interventional
The investigators are conducting a pilot study for a clinical research trial to establish the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and the most effective recruitment strategies prior to the full study.
The eight week pilot will be conducted to establish the feasibility of implementing motivational interviewing as a means to counsel African Americans with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) to increase their walking. Additionally, we will determine the acceptance of culturally sensitive print material on managing PAD. Finally, we will utilize the pilot to develop best practice methods for successfully carrying out the full study.

Exclusion Criteria:
Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing
8 possible weeks of motivational interviewing sessions
Change from baseline to eight weeks in 6 minute walk test
The participant will walk as far as possible for 6 minutes in a marked corridor. They will be permitted to slow down, stop, and to rest as necessary, but the time will continue to run. They will be given standardized encouragement at each minute and their ending point will be marked with tape. The laps will be counted and the total distance in feet will be recorded. The onset of claudication, number of times the participant needed to stop, and rate of perceived exertion will be recorded throughout the test.
Time frame: 8 weeks

Time frame: baseline
Baseline 7 day physical activity
Each participant will wear an accelerometer for one week at baseline to collect their current level physical activity. The accelerometers will collect movement in x, y, and z axis as well as total steps. They will be asked to put the accelerometer on first thing in the morning and take it right before bed.
