Implementation of a Peer Leader-facilitated Dyadic Intervention

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This Pilot Study Large Application builds upon the results of our prior work to 1) Implement and pilot test a peer leader-facilitated 12-week dyadic intervention (Community Health among Asian Indian immigrants (CHAI) Dyad study) using a cluster randomization design, to decrease cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among first generation AI immigrants; and 2) Assess the feasibility/acceptability of a full-scale intervention. Twenty marital dyads from the site randomly assigned as the intervention site will receive the 12- week peer leader-facilitated dyadic intervention, while 20 dyads from the site randomly assigned as the "usual care" control group site will receive a basic cardiovascular lifestyle modification program. Both groups will meet weekly (90 min. classes) for 12 weeks in a hybrid format (a combination of face to face and remote learning). The intervention is designed to address factors that we identified in our previous study as contributing to a syndemic of cardiovascular disease among AI immigrants including acculturation stress, family history and genetic risk, physical inactivity, as well as a high fat, high-carbohydrate, high-calorie diet.
