## What is PACINPAT Coaching?

The PACINPAT Coaching App is an integral part of a research project supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation.

Within the PACINPAT (Physical Activity Counselling in Patients with Depression) project, the effect of two different types of physical activity counselling programs on health and physical activity levels is being tested among physically inactive psychiatric in-patients suffering from depression.

The PACINPAT Coaching App connects users and coaches and supports the user to achieve the defined goals. The following services are available:
- Create personalized health action plans and goals with your coach
- Choose your specific actions / steps for your actions plans, including reminders
- Define goals, ideas, actions together with the coach and record them as reference points in the app
- Track your progress against your goals
- Communicate directly with your coach via the app
- Enter your biometrics so that you can base your progress on facts
- Coaching calls are summarized in the app so that you always have an overview about history

The PACINPAT Coaching App supports you in adapting your behavior to achieve your goals.

PACINPAT PROJECT INFO

BACKGROUND
Depression is a widespread and burdensome condition. Physical activity has proven to be a viable treatment as a complement to pharmacology and psychotherapy. However, people suffering from depression are particularly vulnerable to physical inactivity because of physical co-morbidities as well as motivational deficits. Hence, physical activity counselling may have the potential to increase physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness in this population, thus not only tackling mental but also physical health problems.

CONTENTS
In this study two different types of physical activity counselling programs are being compared. During one-on-one contact with a trained physical activity facilitator, participants are encouraged to be more active. The overall aim is to increase physical activity levels in the participants and to evaluate whether physical activity counselling should be implemented systematically in psychiatric clinics.

DATA
All data will be handled confidentially and will be used exclusively for scientific purposes.
