Physical inactivity is associated with a higher risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes: a study in 48 440 adult patients.

摘要: Objectives To compare hospitalisation rates, intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and mortality for patients with COVID-19 who were consistently inactive, doing some activity or meeting physical guidelines. Methods We identified 48 440 adult a diagnosis from 1 January 2020 to 21 October 2020, at least three exercise vital sign measurements 19 March 2018 18 2020. linked each patient’s self-reported category (consistently inactive=0–10 min/week, activity=11–149 min/week, guidelines=150+ min/week) the risk of hospitalisation, ICU admission death after diagnosis. conducted multivariable logistic regression controlling demographics known factors assess whether inactivity was associated outcomes. Results Patients inactive had greater (OR 2.26; 95% CI 1.81 2.83), 1.73; 1.18 2.55) 2.49; 1.33 4.67) due than also 1.20; 1.10 1.32), 1.10; 0.93 1.29) 1.32; 1.09 1.60) activity. Conclusions Consistently guidelines strongly reduced severe outcomes among infected adults. recommend efforts promote be prioritised by public health agencies incorporated into routine medical care.
