Summary

This trial will test whether a behavioral intervention can improve anxiety and depression levels for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking individuals aged 50 or older with high anxiety or depression, who have internet access and can travel to NYC. They must be scheduled for their first knee replacement in at least 8 weeks and willing to work with a coach. Priority goes to those with low socioeconomic status or from underrepresented racial groups.
What is being tested?
The study tests 'Moving Well,' a behavioral intervention aimed at reducing anxiety and depression in patients awaiting knee replacement surgery. Participants will either receive this intervention or join the control group, which involves an alternative program called 'Staying Well.'
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a behavioral intervention rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience discomfort related to engaging in new activities or stress management techniques.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Moving WellExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive weekly calls for 12 weeks (7 weeks before total knee arthroplasty surgery and 5 weeks after surgery) from a peer coach, an exercise program, and mental preparation (through positive thinking) for surgery. Participants will also receive the standard of care for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.
Group II: Staying WellActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will receive weekly calls for 12 weeks (7 weeks before total knee arthroplasty surgery and 5 weeks after surgery) from a research assistant. The calls will be similar in length to those in the experimental arm and will cover various health topics not related to total knee arthroplasty. Participants will also receive the standard of care for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.
