“…A total of 14 articles focused on improving physical activity (PA) and leisure time physical activity (LTPA) participation, motivation, and exercise endurance [ 18 , 20 , 21 , 23 - 25 , 27 , 36 , 43 , 45 - 47 , 49 , 50 ]. There were 11 articles that quantitatively assessed the effectiveness of interventions and services to improve motivation and participation in PA and LTPA ( Multimedia Appendix 4 ) [ 18 , 20 , 21 , 23 - 25 , 27 , 36 , 43 , 45 , 46 ]. Of the 11 studies, 3 (27%) used telephone counseling sessions [ 21 , 24 , 43 ], 4 (36%) studies applied web-based applications or platforms providing contents (ie, modules, homework, videos, and email or phone support from a provider, coach, or peer) [ 18 , 23 , 45 , 46 ], 1 (9%) study employed wearable sensors connected to a mobile phone, transferring collected data to a server [ 25 ], and the remaining 3 (27%) studies used videoconferencing software (video-telehealth) as a means of delivering home-based exercise interventions [ 20 , 27 , 36 ].…”

“…The duration of the interventions ranged between 2 and 6 months. A total of 9 (82%) [ 18 , 21 , 23 - 25 , 27 , 36 , 43 , 45 ] of the 11 studies described the planned frequency of contact with the provider, ranging from once a week to once a month, while only 1 (9%) study did not report the frequency of peer and provider interaction [ 46 ]. All 11 studies provided a combination of services aimed at monitoring, providing feedback, and providing motivational and informational support to the target population.…”

“…The outcomes most frequently used for measuring PA and LTPA were the 7-day Self-report LTPA Questionnaire and World Health Organization Quality of Life BREF Scale. In most of the studies (n=10) [ 18 , 21 - 23 , 25 , 27 , 36 , 43 , 45 , 46 ], the interventions had favorable outcomes, elevating the participant’s engagement in LTPA and PA levels. One pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) [ 46 ] was designed to pilot-test a telehealth intervention, grounded in the self-determination theory, to improve PA and quality of life among patients with SCI.…”

Background In Canada, approximately 86,000 people live with spinal cord injury (SCI), and there are an estimated 3675 new cases of traumatic or nontraumatic etiology per year. Most people with SCI will experience secondary health complications, such as urinary and bowel issues, pain syndrome, pressure ulcers, and psychological disorders, resulting in severe chronic multimorbidity. Moreover, people with SCI may face barriers in accessing health care services, such as primary care physicians’ expert knowledge regarding secondary complications related to SCI. Telehealth, defined as the delivery of information and health-related services through telecommunication technologies, may help address some of the barriers, and indeed, the present global COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the importance of integration of telehealth in health care systems. As a result of this crisis, health care providers have increased the usage of telehealth services, providing health services to individuals in need of community-based supportive care. However, the evidence on models of telehealth service delivery for adults with SCI has not been previously synthesized. Objective The purpose of this scoping review was to identify, describe, and compare models of telehealth services for community-dwelling adults with SCI. Methods This scoping review follows the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines. Studies published between 1990 and December 31, 2022, were identified by searching the Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, Ovid PsycINFO, Web of Science, and CINAHL databases. Papers with specified inclusion criteria were screened by 2 investigators. Included articles focused on identifying, implementing, or evaluating telehealth interventions, including primary health care services and self-management services delivered in the community and home-based settings. One investigator performed a full-text review of each article, and data extraction included (1) study characteristics; (2) participant characteristics; (3) key characteristics of the interventions, programs, and services; and (4) outcome measures and results. Results A total of 61 articles reported telehealth services used for preventing, managing, or treating the most common secondary complications and consequences of SCI, including chronic pain, low physical activity, pressure ulcers, and psychosocial dysfunction. Where evidence exists, improvements in community participation, physical activity, and reduction in chronic pain, pressure ulcers, etc, following SCI were demonstrated. Conclusions Telehealth may offer an efficient and effective option for health service delivery for community-dwelling individuals with SCI, ensuring continuity of rehabilitation, follow-up after hospital discharge, and early detection, management, or treatment of potential secondary complications following SCI. We recommend that the stakeholders involved with patients with SCI consider the uptake of hybridized (blend of web-based and in-person) health care delivery models to optimize the care continuum and self-management of SCI-related care. The findings of this scoping review may be used to inform policy makers, health care professionals, and stakeholders engaged in establishing web-based clinics for individuals with SCI.

“…mHealth is beginning to appear in the scientific literature as a tool for promoting health-related variables due to its scope and possibilities [ 33 , 34 , 35 ]. There are already some approaches to the application of these instruments for improving or controlling these variables in people with SCI [ 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 ]. The study by Canori et al [ 38 ] is worth highlighting, focusing on the use of mHealth to promote PA in people with SCI.…”

Background: Although mHealth tools have great potential for health interventions, few experimental studies report on their use by people with spinal cord injuries in physical activity. Objective: The main objective of this study was to analyze the effect of the ParaSportAPP on different physical and psychological variables in people with paraplegia. Methods: Fourteen of these subjects made up the final sample. All the participants performed two pre-tests (control period) and a post-test with 8 months between the evaluations (COVID-19 broke out between pre-test 2 and the post-test). The ParaSportAPP was installed on their smartphones when they performed pre-test 2. The same tests were performed in the same order in all the evaluations: (i) the questionnaires PASIPD, HADS, RS-25; SCIM III and AQoL-8D, (ii) respiratory muscle strength, (iii) spirometry and (iv) cardiopulmonary exercise test. Results: The results showed no differences in any of the variables studied between the measurement times. Conclusions: Although none of the variables experienced improvements, the ParaSportAPP mobile application was able to lessen the impact of the pandemic on the variables studied.

Objective Just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs), which allow individuals to receive the right amount of tailored support at the right time and place, hold enormous potential for promoting behavior change. However, research on JITAIs’ implementation and evaluation is still in its early stages, and more empirical evidence is needed. This meta-analysis took a complexity science approach to evaluate the effectiveness of JITAIs that promote healthy behaviors and assess whether key design principles can increase JITAIs’ impacts. Methods We searched five databases for English-language papers. Study eligibility required that interventions objectively measured health outcomes, had a control condition or pre-post-test design, and were conducted in the real-world setting. We included randomized and non-randomized trials. Data extraction encompassed interventions’ features, methodologies, theoretical foundations, and delivery modes. RoB 2 and ROBINS-I were used to assess risk of bias. Results The final analysis included 21 effect sizes with 592 participants. All included studies used pre- and post-test design. A three-level random meta-analytic model revealed a medium effect of JITAIs on objective behavior change ( g = 0.77 (95% confidence interval (CI); 0.32 to 1.22), p < 0.001). The summary effect was robust to bias. Moderator analysis indicated that design principles, such as theoretical foundations, targeted behaviors, and passive or active assessments, did not moderate JITAIs’ effects. Passive assessments were more likely than a combination of passive and active assessments to relate to higher intervention retention rates. Conclusions This review demonstrated some evidence for the efficacy of JITAIs. However, high-quality randomized trials and data on non-adherence are needed.
