Abstract
Background
The factors influencing sedentary time (ST) of individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have not been thoroughly explored.
Aim
To identify determinant factors of ST in individuals with stable COPD.
Methods
Individuals with COPD had their ST and variables of physical activity (PA) cross-sectionally assessed during seven days with an activity monitor. Main variables were ST/day (<1.5 METs), steps/day, time/day in light PA (light PA/day, 1.5–2.9 METs) and in moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA/day, ≥3 METs). Additional assessments included 6-min walking test (6MWT), Medical Research Council (MRC) scale, lung function and body composition. Multiple linear regression models were built with variables correlating significantly with ST/day.
Results
50 individuals were analyzed (44 % males; 66 ± 8 years; FEV1 50 ± 19%pred). ST/day was 488 ± 160 min (61 ± 15 % of the day). 6MWT, MRC scale, MVPA/day, steps/day and light PA/day correlated significantly with ST expressed as minutes/day or as % of the day. In the multiple regression analyses, variables explaining the variance of ST in minutes/day were MRC scale (1 %) and light PA/day (53 %) (model R2 = .541, p < 0.001) and of ST in % of the day were steps/day (53 %) and light PA/day (46 %) (model R2 = .994, p < 0.001).
Conclusion
In individuals with COPD, the variance in sedentary time can be explained by dyspnea in daily life, step count and specially time/day in light PA, which reinforces the increase in light PA (rather than necessarily MVPA) as a strategy to reduce sedentary time.
期刊介绍:
Respiratory Medicine is an internationally-renowned journal devoted to the rapid publication of clinically-relevant respiratory medicine research. It combines cutting-edge original research with state-of-the-art reviews dealing with all aspects of respiratory diseases and therapeutic interventions. Topics include adult and paediatric medicine, epidemiology, immunology and cell biology, physiology, occupational disorders, and the role of allergens and pollutants.
Respiratory Medicine is increasingly the journal of choice for publication of phased trial work, commenting on effectiveness, dosage and methods of action.
