Summary

This study tests whether a virtual assistant (a chatbot) can help adults aged 60 and older complete a 12-week home exercise program. Seventy participants will either use the virtual assistant or join a standard in-person class. The goal is to see if the tech-based approach improves how often people exercise, which could help prevent age-related health problems.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 70 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Expected to finish

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 60 years or older. * Community-dwelling individuals capable of participating in an exercise program. * Ability to complete 60-minute exercise sessions, three times per week during the 12-week intervention. * Experimental group (BOT Group): Participants willing to use a smartphone/tablet and interact with the virtual assistant. * Control group (Municipal Exercise Group): Individuals already enrolled in the municipal program Enguera se saludable. * Ability to understand the study procedures and provide written informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Medical contraindications to physical exercise, as determined by clinical judgment (e.g., uncontrolled cardiovascular, respiratory, or metabolic conditions). * Severe cognitive impairment or neurological conditions that limit the ability to follow instructions or safely perform the exercise program. * Severe mobility limitations preventing participation in structured exercise (e.g., inability to walk independently with or without aid). * Acute musculoskeletal injuries or recent surgeries that contraindicate exercise participation. * Individuals currently participating in another structured exercise program that would interfere with the study interventions (other than Enguera se saludable for the control group). * Inability or unwillingness to comply with the requirements of the study (frequency, duration, assessments). * For the BOT group: lack of access to a device compatible with the virtual assistant or inability/unwillingness to use it.
