Regular physical activity is an important component of diabetes management. However, there are limited data on the habitual physical activity of people with or at risk of diabetes-related foot complications. The aim of this study was to describe the habitual physical activity of people with or at risk of diabetes-related foot complications in regional Australia. Twenty-three participants with diabetes from regional Australia were recruited with twenty-two participants included in subsequent analyses: no history of ulcer (N = 11) and history of ulcer (N = 11). Each participant wore a triaxial accelerometer (GT3X+; ActiGraph LLC, Pensacola, FL, USA) on their non-dominant wrist for 14 days. There were no significant differences between groups according to both participant characteristics and physical activity outcomes. Median minutes per day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) were 9.7 (IQR: 1.6-15.7) while participants recorded an average of 280 ± 78 min of low-intensity physical activity and 689 ± 114 min of sedentary behaviour. The sample accumulated on average 30 min of slow walking and 2 min of fast walking per day, respectively. Overall, participants spent very little time performing MVPA and were largely sedentary. It is important that strategies are put in place for people with or at risk of diabetes-related foot complications in order that they increase their physical activity significantly in accordance with established guidelines.
定期进行身体活动是糖尿病管理的重要组成部分。然而，关于有或有糖尿病相关足部并发症风险的人群的习惯性身体活动的数据有限。本研究旨在描述澳大利亚地区有或有糖尿病相关足部并发症风险人群的习惯性身体活动。从澳大利亚地区招募了 23 名患有糖尿病的参与者，其中 22 名参与者纳入了后续分析：无溃疡史（N=11）和溃疡史（N=11）。每位参与者在非优势手腕上佩戴三轴加速度计（GT3X+；ActiGraph LLC，佛罗里达州彭萨科拉），佩戴时间为 14 天。根据参与者特征和身体活动结果，两组之间没有显著差异。中等至剧烈身体活动（MVPA）的中位数分钟数为 9.7（IQR：1.6-15.7），而参与者记录的低强度身体活动的平均时间为 280±78 分钟，久坐行为的平均时间为 689±114 分钟。该样本平均每天进行 30 分钟的慢走和 2 分钟的快走，分别。总的来说，参与者进行 MVPA 的时间非常少，大部分时间处于久坐状态。对于有或有糖尿病相关足部并发症风险的人群，重要的是要制定策略，以便他们根据既定指南显著增加身体活动。
