Abstract
Purpose: Little research has focused on the potential impact that the environment plays in shaping cardiac rehabilitation (CR) patient sedentary time (ST) and physical activity (PA). To address this, the current study generated daily path areas (DPAs) based on the locations they visited during and after they completed CR.
Methods: Patients in CR (n = 66) completed a survey and wore an accelerometer and Global Positioning System receiver for 7 days early (first month), late (last 2 weeks of program), and 3 months after completing CR.
Results: Individual DPAs were approximately 24 km2 at baseline and remained stable over time. Location-based analyses showed that most patients' ST and PA time was spent at home, followed by other residential, commercial, work, and CR locations. However, the time spent in certain locations (eg, parks and recreation locations) fluctuated during and after CR by intensity.
Conclusions: CR patient DPA was stable over time. Within this space, they primarily engaged in ST and PA at home. However, when not home, the distribution of location use varied across a number of locations that extended well beyond their neighborhoods. Therefore, proximity to home may not be a barrier for CR patients in relation to their ST and PA.
期刊介绍:
JCRP was the first, and remains the only, professional journal dedicated to improving multidisciplinary clinical practice and expanding research evidence specific to both cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation. This includes exercise testing and prescription, behavioral medicine, and cardiopulmonary risk factor management. In 2007, JCRP expanded its scope to include primary prevention of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. JCRP publishes scientific and clinical peer-reviewed Original Investigations, Reviews, and Brief or Case Reports focused on the causes, prevention, and treatment of individuals with cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases in both a print and online-only format. Editorial features include Editorials, Invited Commentaries, Literature Updates, and Clinically-relevant Topical Updates. JCRP is the official Journal of the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation and the Canadian Association of Cardiac Rehabilitation.
