Abstract

Background: The ‘A Better everyday LifE’ (ABLE) intervention was developed to enhance ADL ability among persons living with chronic conditions. ABLE is a generic, home-based, individualized, eight-week occupational therapy intervention program. A previous feasibility study evaluated ABLE in terms of content and delivery.

Objective: Evaluate remaining feasibility aspects before a RCT, namely: recruitment and retention, randomization, adherence, outcome measurements and information concerning usual occupational therapy (UOT).

Methods: The study was conducted in a Danish municipality using a RCT design (n=20). Progression criteria determining feasibility of future full-scale trial were: recruitment (50% met the eligibility criteria), retention (80%); randomization (80% accepted, procedures executed as planned); adherence to protocol (100%); outcome measurements (80% relevantly completed questionnaires); and information on UOT (successful extraction of nine predefined variables).

Results: Covid-19 pandemic caused a premature cessation. Thus, data were limited but sufficient. Proportion recruited 48.6%; retention 100%; randomization acceptance 100%, procedure effective; adherence 100%; 92.3-100% completed two of three questionnaires; and information on UOT was extractable on seven variables.

Conclusion: With few adjustments, proceeding to a full-scale trial is recommendable.
