体力活动 (PA) 可以改善肾癌幸存者 (KCS) 的生活质量，但体力活动参与率较低。增加 KCS 中 PA 的行为改变干预措施应考虑 PA 偏好。本研究的目的是确定 KCS 的 PA 偏好，并确定与选定的人口和医学变量的任何关联。1996 年至 2010 年间，通过加拿大艾伯塔省的加拿大省登记处确定的所有 1,985 名 KCS 患者均收到了一份调查问卷，其中包括戈丁休闲时间运动问卷和各种 PA 偏好变量。还收集了标准人口统计和医疗变量。已完成的调查来自 1,654 名符合资格的 KCS 中的 703 名 (43%)。超过 80% 的 KCS 认为他们能够或可能能够参与专为 KCS 设计的 PA 计划，超过 70% 的人有兴趣或可能有兴趣这样做。最常见的 PA 偏好是从癌症中心的健身专家那里接收 PA 信息 (55.7%)、通过印刷材料接收信息 (50.0%)、治疗后开始 PA 计划 (36.5%)、与配偶一起锻炼 (39.6%)、在家锻炼 (52.0%)、进行中等强度的 PA (58.4%) 以及在夏季 (69.4%) 和冬季步行 (48.2%)。卡方分析发现，年龄、性别和当前的 PA 是与 PA 偏好最一致的个人变量。大多数 KCS 表示有兴趣进行 PA 计划，并确定了重要的偏好。这些偏好可用于为 PA 干预提供信息，以增强 KCS 的动机和依从性。
Physical activity (PA) improves quality of life in kidney cancer survivors (KCS), but PA participation rates are low. Behavior change interventions to increase PA in KCS should take into account PA preferences. The purpose of this study was to identify the PA preferences of KCS and determine any associations with selected demographic and medical variables.All 1,985 KCS diagnosed between 1996 and 2010 identified through a Canadian provincial registry in Alberta, Canada were mailed a survey that consisted of the Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire and various PA preference variables. Standard demographic and medical variables were also collected.Completed surveys were received from 703 of 1,654 (43%) eligible KCS. Over 80% of KCS felt they were able or may be able to participate in a PA program designed for KCS and over 70% were interested or may be interested in doing so. The most common PA preferences were to receive PA information from a fitness expert at a cancer center (55.7%), receive information via print material (50.0%), start a PA program after treatment (36.5%), exercise with a spouse (39.6%), exercise at home (52.0%), do moderate-intensity PA (58.4%), and walk in both the summer (69.4%) and winter (48.2%). Chi-square analyses uncovered that age, sex, and current PA were the personal variables most consistently associated with PA preferences.The majority of KCS expressed an interest in doing a PA program and important preferences were identified. These preferences may be used to inform PA interventions to enhance motivation and adherence in KCS.
