Aims
1) Brief overview of why health behaviors should be an
important focus in medicine
•
Highlight sleep and physical activity – yellow team
experiential learning
2) Discuss general principles and models of behavioral
change
3) Discuss some tools and techniques to foster sustainable
behavioral change in patients
Why have a residency rotation
focusing on behavior ?
Behavior directly linked to 40% of Actual Causes of Death in US (1990)
75% of $2.5 Trillion in healthcare cost attributable to chronic diseases (diabetes, CVD, etc)

Sedentarism:
• 33% of High School kids meet PA Guidelines (60 min/day)
• 48% of Adults meet guidelines (150 mins. moderate / week)

sleep (CDC)
Kripke et al. 2001, Arch Gen Psych
Self-Reported Total Sleep Time
INSOMNIA:
"Last week I probably slept an average of
two hours a night.
"I couldn't stop thinking. My body was
exhausted, and my mind was still going."

Sleep Duration Increases Diabetes
Risk
•
Experimental sleep restriction to 4 hrs/night for 6
days causes insulin resistance (Spiegel et al. (Lancet, 1999)
•
Sleep duration impacts prevalence of diabetes
Adjusted for age, sex, race, waist girth, caffeine,
alcohol, smoking, and apnea-hypopnea index

Sleep is increasingly linked to obesity

General Principles of Fostering
Behavior change in your patients:
# 1: It is all about the relationship
•
Listen to your patient
•
Get to know what is important to them and why
General Principles of Sustaining
Behavior Change: elephant metaphor
Appeal directly to
the emotional beast:
Make it meaningful,
personal, and salient
The rider must establish simple, clear
actionable directions (goal setting) to
steer the beast and maintain course:
Clear the path: Address
external “environmental”
barriers & consider how
environment can be
modified to promote
change
Health Bros, Switch
General Principles of Behavior
Change: promote patient’s autonomy
for change
•
Collaboratively help patients freely
commit to change for their own reasons
on own terms
•
•
Connect reasons to personal meaning and affect
If you are working harder to change the
patient than the patient is, take a step
back.
Pitfalls:
•
Trying to force change or superficially
telling a patient what they should do is
likely to backfire
Experimental Design: Alcohol
Dependence




Rats randomized to control, intermittent free choice
(once per week), continuous free choice, or forced intake
of ethanol
Became dependent on ethanol over 8 months of drug
administration
Animals kept ethanol-abstinent for 3 months, during
which time they showed withdrawal (change in pain
threshold, hyperthermia, inactivity)
Animals then provided self-administration test

Experimental Design : Opiate
Dependence




Rats randomized to control, choice or forced
intake of etonitazene
Became dependent on opiate over 30 weeks of
drug administration
Animals kept opiate-abstinent for 19 weeks,
during which time they showed withdrawal
(change in pain threshold)
Animals then provided self-administration test

General Principles of Behavior
Change: Health Belief Model
Seriousness of the risk / disease
Odds it will happen to me ?
Ability to change ?
Reminders / Triggers
Self Efficacy
is King
Using Prompts / Reminders / Triggers
1) Environmental stimuli often profoundly drive behaviors
- Stimulus control (learned associations)
- Unconscious priming
E.g. television food cues >>excessive snacking
2) Applied Behavioral Analysis
Break down chained antecedents of behavior
3) Use salient prompts to trigger desired behaviors
- Premack Principle: pair a low frequency behavior you
want to increase with a high frequency behavior:
- meds after brushing teeth
- push ups after voiding
Meeting the patient where they are:
Stages of Change [Transtheoretical Model (Prochaska & Di Celemente)]
•
Change is not
linear.
•
Relapse is
part of the
process
•
Many think
they ready to
change in the
abstract, but
not ready for
all the steps

-
Fear of work
performance hit
Gym Fees
Breaking routine is
stressful
- Insomnia will return
- Gain weight
- Hypertension
- More anxious / Irritable
- Cognitive decline
Benefits

- Mood enhanced
- More creative
- Better quality time with
family
- More time with family
- More time to meet
work deadlines
Strategies and tools : Preparation
Goal Setting:
Poorly crafted goal: “I want to lose weight.”
Smart goal
Specific:
Measurable:
Action - Oriented
Reasonable:
Time Delineated
Long-term Goal
“I want to lose 1 pound / week for 3 months by:”
Short-term Goals / Steps
1) Decrease alcohol to 2 servings / week
2) Cut meal portion sizes by about 20% and limit red meat to 2X week
3) Limiting snacks to 100 calories of fruits & veggies between meals
4) Walking 10,000 steps, 4 days a week
Strategies and tools : Preparation
Create Social Motivation & Learning
Opportunities:
1) Commitments: We seek to be consistent with our public
promises
a)
Have patient explicitly commit goals to others (remember autonomy)
2) Identify an appropriate Model / Mentor (peer leaders)
a)
Similar to learner with respect to demographics and / or
b)
Individuals admired (power and charisma), e.g. Doctors!
3) Norms:
a)
We are strongly influenced by what others do!
Consider whether peer network helps or impedes & augment
Strategies and tools : Action
Self-Monitoring
Critical to most formal behavioral change interventions:
Must be quick, easy, and usable
National Weight loss Registry (Wing & Phelan, 2005).
-
Characteristics of Individuals who have lost at least 30 lbs and kept weight
off for > 1 year.
-
75% weigh themselves at least 1 X week.
-
90% exercise 60 mins. / day
Take Home Messages
1) Myth: Behavior change is hard
2) Start with targets where patient is ready , confident & able
3) Make it personal (appeal to the beast)
4) Set small realistic SMART goals (75% confident)
5) Use Prompts, triggers, & clear environmental path /barriers
6) Use social learning principles

Make public a personal commitment

Modeling

Norms
7) Self monitoring: must be easy and informative
