Digital Self-Management Program for Inflammatory Bowel Disease
This study is testing a digital self-management program for people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), including Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease. The program, accessed online or via mobile, aims to help you manage your condition alongside your usual medical care. Researchers want to see if this program can improve your health and quality of life. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, have an IBD diagnosis, and are experiencing active symptoms and impaired quality of life. This study is currently recruiting about 40 participants. Success for this study means a good number of people join and complete the program, and that they find it acceptable and helpful.

What this trial measures
- Participant recruitment rate2 years (during the recruitment period)
Feasibility will be defined by participant recruitment rate (the proportion of the proposed sample size who enroll to participate in the study over time). The study team hypothesize that the team will achieve a recruitment rate of 10 participants every 3 months.
- The proportion of enrolled participants that complete the study without dropout24 weeks
Feasibility will be defined by retention (the proportion enrolled participants who complete the study without dropout). The study team hypothesize that 70% participant retention at 24 weeks,
- The proportion of study assessments completed by the participant24 weeks
Feasibility willed be defined by the outcome assessment completion (the proportion of study assessments completed by participant). The study team hypothesize that 70% outcome data collection.
- Qualitative interviews - self-management program group24 weeks
Protocol acceptability will be determined based on post-intervention qualitative data. Discussion with participants will be facilitated by questions focusing on feedback about intervention characteristics, including content and functionality (e.g., usability, timing, frequency) and evaluate helpfulness, likes and dislikes, barriers and facilitators to use, and suggestions for improvement.
