Abstract

Objective

The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of healthcare professionals engaging in insufficient levels of physical activity (PA) and to identify sociodemographic, professional and health characteristics associated with insufficient PA levels.

Methods

We conducted a nationwide online cross-sectional study targeting healthcare professionals in France from May 2021 to June 2021. Participant recruitment involved outreach through social networks, professional networks, and email invitations. PA levels were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), with insufficient PA defined as weekly PA totaling less than 600 mets/week.

Results

The study included a total of 10,325 participants, of whom 3939 (38.1%, 95% confidence interval 37.1–39.0%) exhibited insufficient levels of PA. In the multivariable analysis, we identified factors associated with insufficient PA: ages between 35–44 (aOR=1.58, 95%CI [1.21–2.06], p=.001) and 45–54 years (aOR=1.40, 95%CI [1.07–1.83], p =.015), gender (female aOR=1.47, 95%CI [1.12–1.44], p<.001), and professions including health executive (aOR=1.27, 95%CI [1.32–1.64], p<.001), nurse assistant (aOR=1.25, 95%CI [1.07–1.47], p=.006), and physician (aOR=1.18, 95%CI [1.03–1.34], p=.015). Additionally, burnout (aOR=1.32, 95%CI [1.21–1.44], p<.001), tobacco use (aOR=1.33, 95%CI [1.20–1.58], p<.001), being overweight (aOR=1.39, 95%CI [1.28–1.52], p<.001), major depression (aOR=1.44, 95%CI [1.20–1.47], p<.001), and sleep disorders (aOR=1.14, 95%CI [1.05–1.25], p=.002) were associated with insufficient PA. Work night shifts was associated with sufficient PA.

Conclusion

Our study has revealed a substantial prevalence of healthcare professionals with insufficient PA levels. This prevalence, coupled with various associated health-damaging behaviors and mental health issues, underscores the importance of acknowledging the barriers they encounter in adopting a physically active lifestyle.

医疗保健专业人员的体育活动与健康之间的关系：美国医学协会全国性调查结果。

目的：本研究的目的是评估医疗保健专业人员体力活动水平不足的患病率，并确定与体力活动水平低下相关的社会人口学、专业和健康特征。方法：2021年5月至2021年6月，我们针对法国的医疗保健专业人员进行了一项全国性的在线横断面研究。参与者招募包括通过社交网络、专业网络和电子邮件邀请进行外联。使用国际体育活动问卷（IPAQ）评估PA水平，PA不足定义为每周PA总量低于600 mets/周。结果：该研究共包括10325名参与者，其中3939人（38.1%，95%置信区间37.1-39.0%）表现出PA水平不足。在多变量分析中，我们确定了与PA水平不足相关的因素：年龄在35-44岁（aOR=1.58，95%CI[1.21-2.06]，p=0.001）和45-54岁（aOR=1.40，95%CI[1.07-1.83]，p=0.015）之间，性别（女性aOR=1.47，95%CI[1.12-1.44]，P结论：我们的研究表明，PA水平不足的医疗保健专业人员的患病率很高。这种患病率，加上各种相关的健康损害行为和心理健康问题，突显了承认他们在采用积极的体育生活方式时遇到的障碍的重要性。
