What’s a ‘trial’?
It’s research! Normally, when we think of clinical trials, we think of medicines. PCD-ENGAGE is a drug-free trial.
What does it involve?
This study looks at whether support from an app and a fitness tracker can improve your physio routine, quality of life, and how many infections you get over 12 weeks. Everyone in the study will get access to the app, and 50% will get a fitness tracker. Those who complete the 12 weeks will receive a £20 Amazon voucher as a thank you. Although the trial lasts 12 weeks, you may continue for an additional 12 weeks. In this extension phase, all remaining participants will receive the fitness tracker.
Can I take part?
This study has finished and is no longer looking for participants.
Got questions?
Please check back on this page in future as we will continue to update as/when results are published.
