Official title
Mobility Outcomes in Post-Pulmonary Embolic Disease (MOPED): A Pilot Feasibility Prospective Randomized Trial
Overview
The purpose of this study is to develop a unique structure and delivery of home-based exercise through multidisciplinary expertise of cardiovascular medicine specialists and cardiac physiologists using an Interactive Care Plan.
Interventions
- Other Exercise Training
Patients will be recommended to exercise 3 days/week, 20 minutes per session, for 12 weeks using personalized intervention determined by a consultation with a clinical exercise physiologist (CEP)
Primary outcome measures
- Change in physical capacity from baseline [Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months, 6 Months]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Change in Pulmonary Embolism-specific quality of life (PEmb-QOL) outcome measures from baseline [Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months, 6 Months]
- Change in general Short Form 36 (SF-36) quality of life outcome measures from baseline [Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months, 6 Months]
- Number of Steps [Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months, 6 Months]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
Acute intermediate-risk PE, defined as:
- Intraluminal filling defect in segmental or larger vessels on computed tomography pulmonary angiography or high-probability ventilation/perfusion scan AND
- Evidence of right ventricular enlargement by computed tomography (RV to LV ratio >1) or echocardiography; and/or right ventricular dysfunction by transthoracic echocardiography. These imaging characteristics must be in the setting of acute PE rather than explained by a prior chronic condition.
Acute high-risk PE, defined as:
- Intraluminal filling defect in segmental or larger vessels on computed tomography pulmonary angiography or high-probability ventilation/perfusion scan AND
- Evidence of right ventricular enlargement by computed tomography (RV to LV ratio >1) or echocardiography; and/or right ventricular dysfunction by transthoracic echocardiography. These imaging characteristics must be in the setting of acute PE rather than explained by a prior chronic condition; AND
- Hypotension (systolic blood pressure < 90 mm Hg sustained for more than 15 minutes; or requiring vasopressors) or cardiogenic shock due to acute pulmonary embolism.
Exclusion criteria
- Inability to ambulate independently, which is necessary to perform 6MWD (may be self-reported or as deemed by physical therapy during inpatient evaluation).
- If patient requires supplemental oxygen during ambulation, this does not exclude patient from participation and will be noted during eCRF.
- Prior history of pulmonary embolism
- History of CTEPH or pulmonary arterial hypertension
- Unable to read a questionnaire in English
- Unable to return for baseline, 3- or 6-month follow-up visit
- Pregnancy-associated pulmonary embolism
- Life expectancy <1 year based on comorbidities
- Unable/unwilling to provide informed written consent
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
