Abstract The PRomoting Activity, Independence and Stability in Early Dementia (PrAISED) study delivered an exercise and functional activity programme to participants living with dementia. A Randomised Controlled Trial showed no measurable benefits in activities of daily living, physical activity or quality of life. To explore participants’ responses to PrAISED and explain why an intervention that might be expected to have produced measurable health gains did not do so.
This was a repeated measure study, using secondary data from the PrAISED RCT, [8] (but not reporting results from the RCT, which is ongoing). It made use of self-reported minutes of physical exercise compiled by all participants in the intervention arm of the PrAISED RCT on monthly calendars during the COVID-19 pandemic first lockdown in England. The Clinical Trial Identifier for PrAISED is: ISRCTN15320670 (https://doi.org/10.1186/ISRCTN15320670). Registration was made on 04/09/2018.
