Review[Physical Activity Recommendations for Adults with a Chronic Disease: Methods, Database and Rationale].
This paper describes the development of generic physical activity recommendations for adults (18-65 years) with a chronic disease. The physical activity recommendations were developed based on existing recommendations using a 3-phased process. Phase 1: Systematic literature searches for current physical activity recommendations for 7 chronic diseases. ⋯ But, people with chronic diseases who have enhanced physical activity levels may also be at increased risk. Nevertheless, adapted, individualized physical activity is safe and with little risk. The generic physical activity recommendations for adults with chronic conditions provide an evidence-based and quality-controlled basis for physical activity promotion of the target group.
