To investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on physical activity in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS).
Multicenter international online survey study.
The survey was conducted within 11 participating countries. Each country launched the survey using online platforms from May to July 2021.
This was an electronic survey study targeting PwMS (N=3725).
Not applicable.
The survey ascertained physical activity performance and its intensity, the nature of the activities conducted, and the use of technology to support home-based physical activity before and during the pandemic.
A total of 3725 respondents completed the survey. Prepandemic, the majority (83%) of respondents reported being physically active, and this decreased to 75% during the pandemic. This change was significant for moderate- and high-intensity activity (P<.0001). Activities carried out in physiotherapy centers, gyms, or pools decreased the most. Walking was the most frequently performed activity prepandemic (27%) and increased during the pandemic (33%). A total of 24% of those inactive during the pandemic had no intention of changing their physical activity behavior post pandemic. A total of 58% of the respondents did not use technology to support physical activity during the pandemic. Of those who did use technology, wearables were most used (24%). Of those currently nonactive (25%) expressed a preference for an in-person format to conduct physical activity post pandemic.
Physical activity performance, especially activities at moderate and high intensities, decreased during the pandemic in PwMS compared with prepandemic. Walking and using wearables gained popularity as ways to stay active. As we move toward an endemic COVID-19, a call for action to develop interventions focused on walking programs with specific emphasis on increasing physical activity of PwMS is proposed.
调查 COVID-19 大流行对多发性硬化症患者（PwMS）身体活动的影响。
多中心国际在线调查研究。
该调查在 11 个参与国家进行。每个国家都在 2021 年 5 月至 7 月期间使用在线平台开展调查。
这是一项针对 PwMS（N=3725）的电子调查研究。
不适用。
调查确定了大流行前后身体活动表现及其强度、活动性质以及使用技术支持居家身体活动。
共有 3725 名受访者完成了调查。大流行前，大多数（83%）受访者报告身体活跃，这一比例在大流行期间下降到 75%。对于中高强度活动，这种变化具有统计学意义（P<.0001）。在物理治疗中心、健身房或游泳池进行的活动减少最多。大流行前，散步是最常进行的活动（27%），大流行期间增加到 33%。大流行期间不活跃的人中有 24%没有打算在大流行后改变他们的身体活动行为。大流行期间，共有 58%的受访者没有使用技术支持身体活动。在使用技术的人中，最常使用可穿戴设备（24%）。目前不活跃的人（25%）表示更倾向于在大流行后采用面对面的方式进行身体活动。
与大流行前相比，多发性硬化症患者的身体活动表现，特别是中高强度活动，在大流行期间有所下降。散步和使用可穿戴设备越来越受欢迎，成为保持活跃的方式。随着我们迈向 COVID-19 流行，我们呼吁采取行动，制定以步行项目为重点的干预措施，特别强调增加多发性硬化症患者的身体活动。
