【 摘 要 】

Objectives: The objective of this review of reviews was to identify the potentially modifiable barriers and facilitators to physical activity in people with a musculoskeletal condition to influence intervention development. Study design: A rapid review of reviews. Methods: The Cochrane library and PubMed Central were searched for reviews using pre-defined search terms and relevant synonyms for “physical activity”, “barriers” or “facilitators”, and “musculoskeletal condition”. The identified reviews were screened for inclusion by the principal investigator in line with recognised streamlining approaches for a rapid review. Only review papers investigating the barriers and facilitators to physical activity in adults with a musculoskeletal condition were included. A team of seven assessed the included reviews for identification of the barriers and facilitators to physical activity coded using the COM-B model of behaviour. Results: 503 reviews were identified with 12 included for analysis across a mix of conditions and designs (n = 2: qualitative; n = 6: quantitative; n = 4 mixed). A multitude of interrelated factors were identified across the COM-B components. The most prevalent factors included disease symptoms and physical function (physical capability), knowledge of the specific benefits of physical activity and knowing what to do (psychological capability), the accessibility of facilities and individualised programming (physical opportunity), tailored advice from healthcare professionals and peer support (social opportunity), beliefs about the benefits or harms of being active (reflective motivation) and having the self-efficacy to be active and experiencing positive emotions (automatic motivation). Conclusions: This review of reviews identified the complex nature of physical activity in people living with a musculoskeletal condition. The identified barriers and facilitators should be considered by intervention designers when developing behaviour change interventions for this population group.
