People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are sedentary but the extent of the problem is not fully understood.
This study examines sedentary time and physical activity (PA) and the relative effects of demographic and clinical characteristics on sedentary time and PA in a population-based sample of people with COPD and a comparison group from the general population.
Subjects were drawn from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey dataset (2003-2006). Physical activity was measured by accelerometry.
People with COPD were sedentary and spent less time in most levels of PA. Age, gender, race, level of education, working status, shortness of breath, self-reported health, and body mass index were significantly associated with sedentary time or level of PA.
Findings emphasize the need to decrease sedentary time and increase PA in people with COPD.
患有慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)的人多久坐不动,但该问题的严重程度尚不完全清楚。
本研究旨在考察基于人群的 COPD 患者样本和一般人群对照组的久坐时间和身体活动(PA)情况,并探讨人口统计学和临床特征对久坐时间和 PA 的相对影响。
研究对象来自国家健康和营养调查数据集(2003-2006 年)。通过加速度计测量 PA。
COPD 患者久坐时间长,大多数 PA 水平的时间都较少。年龄、性别、种族、受教育程度、工作状态、呼吸困难程度、自我报告的健康状况和体重指数与久坐时间或 PA 水平显著相关。
这些发现强调了减少 COPD 患者久坐时间和增加 PA 的必要性。
