Background• People with HIV are living longer; more individuals may encounter physical, social and psychological health‐related challenges of HIV, the consequences of treatment, and multi‐morbidity associated with aging.

• Disability: Any symptoms and impairments, difficulties with day‐to‐day activities, challenges to social inclusion and uncertainty or worrying about the future experienced by an individual. 

• Rehabilitation can assist in managing the health challenges (or disability) associated with HIV, and complex comorbidities.  

• Community‐based exercise programs exist for people chronic illness and are an ideal approach for enhancing health for people with HIV using a self‐management framework.  

• However, no known HIV‐specific CBE programs exist in Canada; and the impact of CBE when translated in the ‘real‐world’ community setting is unknown.

Purpose

To pilot test a community‐based exercise (CBE) intervention with adults living with HIV to reduce disability experienced by adults living with HIV and to determine optimal 

implementation.

CBE Implementation Process

CBE Prescription Large variation in the CBE prescribed among participants.  Majority included a combination of aerobic and resistance exercise. 

Activity Monitoring 9/28 (32%) participants completed the exercise log. 

Weekly Coaching Session Adherence

15/28 (54%) participants  attended >40% of weekly supervised sessions.

Pilot Study ResultsFeedback Study Completion 

N (%)

Felt the CBE Intervention was Beneficial• I am not afraid of the gym anymore• Opportunity to work with a trainer one on one; opportunity to use machines I was not 

aware of; someone to push me and show me another way of exercising• Better sleep habits, strength, less stress, less stiffness

Felt Initial Meeting with Fitness Instructor was Helpful• Spoke about medical issues and were able to plan exercises accordingly• Set the framework for my exercise plan; Helped me set goals

Experienced a Negative Event While Participating in the CBE InterventionLogistics – Difficulty scheduling with the instructor; administrative/logistics around membershipHealth – Overdoing it; Health issues interfered sometimes

7 (39%)

Strengths of the Study (quotes): Practical and important intervention, Central Toronto YMCA is a great setting in the community, felt better overall,  access to Fitness Coaches.

Page 18: BISNAUTH OHTN HIVEndgame Presentation … osteoarthritis’ or ... Extra slides. Multi-morbidity At Baseline ... Microsoft PowerPoint

DiscussionOver 60% of participants completed the 4 month intervention. Factors contributing to the success of the CBE pilot included:  Extensive interest from the community in the study – recruited sample 

within 8 weeks.  Partnership with the YMCA & Meetings with Research Team and YMCA Staff 

were critical to debrief on process throughout. Coaches were knowledgeable, dedicated, and supportive. 

Considerations for Full CBE Implementation Study include:  Strategies to mitigate last minute cancellations or ‘no shows’ to the fitness 

assessments and coaching sessions (episodic nature of HIV); streamline communication between participants, coordinator and coaches.

Few (32%) completed the exercise log – tedious, did not fit diversity of exercise programs.

Respondent burden ‐ questionnaire and assessments.

Conclusions 

• CBE intervention was positively received by participants who completed the pilot study

• Need to identify strategies to maximize adherence to exercise, enhance measurement of physical activity, and reduce the burden of assessments for future phases of CBE implementation
