Study information

Study designLongitudinal study; one patient group with CIAP in which the health status will be monitored
Primary study designObservational
Secondary study designCohort study
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeTreatment
Scientific title
Study acronymEXAMPLE part II
Study objectives1. A specific set of variables of impairments are related or predictive of functional limitations and disabilities
2. A specific set of variables of functional limitations are related or predictive of disabilities
3. Psychological variables (defined by theory of planned behaviour [TPB], anxiety and depression) add to impairment variables in the prediction of functional limitation (in self-report and performance measures)
4. These psychological variables mediate the relationship between impairment and functional limitations
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedChronic idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy (CIAP)
InterventionNone: this is a longitudinal study with one patient group with chronic idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy (CIAP), in which the health status will be monitored
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureParameters of four domains of the disablement process will be measured:
1. Impairment: muscle strength (hand-held dynamometry), balance (Berg balance scale), sensory function (sensory modality score), pain (McGill pain questionnaire), fatigue (fatigue severity scale)
2. Functional limitations: walking (modified shuttle walk test), physical functioning (physical functioning performance 10 test), hand functioning (button test and disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand questionnaire), physical activity (DigiWalker stepcounter), problematic activities (McMaster-Toronto arthritis patient function preference questionnaire)
3. Disability: autonomy and participation (impact on participation and autonomy questionnaire and Rankin score)
4. Intra-individual risk factor: cognitions; intentions and perceptions of control (TPB questionnaire), emotions (hospital anxiety and depression scale)
Secondary outcome measuresNo secondary outcome measures
