To identify factors to consider for developing and implementing a community-based exercise (CBE) program for people living with HIV (PLWH).
We conducted a qualitative descriptive study using semi-structured interviews with PLWH, rehabilitation professionals, and recreation providers from Canada and the United Kingdom. We asked participants to describe their experience with exercise, facilitators, and barriers to accessing and participating in exercise, and factors to consider in developing a CBE program for PLWH. Interviews were analyzed using content analytical techniques.
We developed a Framework of CBE in the Context of HIV that describes (1) exercise experiences of PLWH (nature of exercise, motivators for initiating or sustaining exercise, perceived benefits, and barriers and facilitators to exercise) and (2) 11 factors to consider in developing and implementing a CBE program for PLWH.
Recommendations for the development and implementation of an accessible and feasible CBE program may enhance exercise participation among PLWH.
确定在为感染艾滋病毒者(PLWH)制定和实施基于社区的锻炼(CBE)计划时需要考虑的因素。
我们进行了一项定性描述性研究,对来自加拿大和英国的感染艾滋病毒者、康复专业人员及娱乐活动提供者进行了半结构化访谈。我们要求参与者描述他们的锻炼经历、促进因素以及参与锻炼的障碍,以及在为感染艾滋病毒者制定基于社区的锻炼计划时需要考虑的因素。使用内容分析技术对访谈进行分析。
我们制定了一个艾滋病毒背景下的基于社区的锻炼框架,该框架描述了(1)感染艾滋病毒者的锻炼经历(锻炼的性质、开始或持续锻炼的动机、感知到的益处以及锻炼的障碍和促进因素)以及(2)在为感染艾滋病毒者制定和实施基于社区的锻炼计划时需要考虑的11个因素。
关于制定和实施一个可及且可行的基于社区的锻炼计划的建议,可能会提高感染艾滋病毒者的锻炼参与度。
