Abstract
- Reducing sedentary behavior (SB) in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is being increasingly recognized as a novel health target. Understanding healthcare professionals (HCPs) behavior that influences a reduction in SB in this population could facilitate achieving this target. To explore the determinants of behavior related to HCPs targeting a reduction in SB in people with COPD. We used a qualitative semi-structured interview approach informed by the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF). Sixteen HCPs were interviewed. Interview transcripts were mapped against the relevant TDF domain(s) and then higher order themes were generated. Directed content analysis resulted in mapping 949 quotes to the TDF domains with environmental context and resources being the most coded domain. Three higher order themes were identified: 1) HCPs need more knowledge on reducing SB; 2) Strategies suggested to include in pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) to reduce SB; and 3) Barriers to adding SB to PR. Domains of environmental context and resources, knowledge, social/professional role and identity, reinforcement, social influences, skills and beliefs about capabilities were relevant to the study population to reduce SB in people with COPD. Knowledge of SB varied across participants. This study provided information on potential behavioral targets for future interventions that involve HCPs and aim to reduce SB among people with COPD.
