To assess the effectiveness of physician prescribed exercise, health education, and patient self-monitoring, 124 firefighters were medically screened and randomly allocated to a control and two treatment groups. Physiologic and reporting methods were employed to assess adherence to regular exercise at three months and six months after the initial exercise prescription. Addition of a health education program significantly improved compliance over that achieved by a physician consultation. Self-monitoring did not produce a further increase in compliance. Improvement in the treatment groups was limited to three months after prescription; at six months, the treatment and control populations had similar exercise patterns.
为评估医生开具的运动处方、健康教育及患者自我监测的效果，对124名消防员进行了医学筛查，并随机分为一个对照组和两个治疗组。采用生理指标及报告方法，在初次开具运动处方后的三个月及六个月时评估其对规律运动的依从性。增加健康教育项目显著提高了依从性，超过了单纯医生咨询所取得的效果。自我监测并未使依从性进一步提高。治疗组的改善仅限于处方后的三个月；六个月时，治疗组和对照组的运动模式相似。
