What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Latin DanceBehavioural
Latin dance sessions that include a warm-up routine with music, two choreographed dances, and a cooldown routine with music.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Post-Lung Transplant | Experimental | Subjects that received a single or double lung transplants at Mayo Clinic Florida from 1/1/2020 to the present will participate in open sessions of Latin Dance over a 12-week period. Receives: Behavioral: Latin Dance |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in anxiety
Measured using the General Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD 7) scale to assess severity of generalized anxiety disorder. Scoring is calculated by assigning scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3 to the response categories, respectively, of "not at all," "several days," "more than half the days," and "nearly every day." Total score for the seven items ranges from 0 to 21 where 0 is no anxiety, 1-4 is minimal anxiety, 5-9 is mild anxiety, 10-14 is moderate anxiety, and 15-21 is severe anxiety.
Measured: Baseline, 12 weeks
Change in depression
Measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item (PHQ-9) scale to assess severity of depression. Scoring is calculated by assigning scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3 to the response categories, respectively, of "not at all," "several days," "more than half the days," and "nearly every day." Total score for the seven items ranges from 0 to 27 where 0 is no depression, 1-4 is minimal depression, 5-9 is mild depression, 10-14 is moderate depression, and 15-19 is moderately severe depression and 20-27 severe depression.
Measured: Baseline, 12 weeks
Change in Tampa Kinesophobia Scale
Measured using the Tampa Scale for Kinesophobia 17-item scale to assess fear of movement. Scoring is calculated by assigning scores of 1, 2, 3, and 4 to the response categories, respectively, of "strongly agree," "disagree," "agree," and "strongly agree." Total score for the seventeen items ranges from 17 to 68. A score of 17 is the lowest possible score, and indicates no kinesiophobia or negligible. A score of 68 is the highest possible score and indicates extreme fear of pain with movement.
Measured: Baseline, 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (2)
Change in gait
Measured using the Dynamic Gait Index 8-item scale to assess the likelihood of falling. Scoring is calculated by assigning scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3 to the response categories, respectively, of "severe impairment," "moderate impairment," "mild impairment," and "normal". Total score for the eight items ranges from 0 to 24 where 0 is the lowest level of function and 24 is the highest level of function.
Measured: Baseline, 12 weeks
Change in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1)
Measured by spirometry to determine the volume of air (in liters) exhaled in the first second during forced exhalation
Measured: Baseline, 12 weeks
