Tác giả: Pham Bich Diep, Phan Thi Anh Thu
Tóm tắt:
The study’s objective was to describe some factors associated with the physical activity (PA) level of hypertensive
outpatients in Thuong Tin General Hospital, Ha Noi, in 2023, according to the social ecological model. The crosssectional study was carried out by interviewing face-to-face 352 hypertensive outpatients. The results showed that
age (OR=0.95: 95%CI: 0.91-0.99) and interpersonal factor (OR=0.76: 95%CI: 0.60-0.95) were negatively correlated
with meeting WHO’s PA recommendations while perceived benefits and barriers of PA (OR=1.87: 95%CI: 1.04-
3.34), and environmental factor (physical environment) (OR=3.22: 95%CI: 1.99-5.20) were positively correlated. In
conclusion, the status of meeting PA recommendations in hypertensive patients was associated with some intrapersonal,
interpersonal, and environmental factors; among those, the environmental factors had the most significant correlation.
Health professionals are recommended to provide information on PA frequently to both patients and their families to
help them clearly understand the age-appropriate PA and the benefits and barriers of PA. The state should continue to
build, improve, and maintain a living environment to promote PA in the community.
