Abstract

Title;

“Behaviour change and physical activity interventions for adults with COPD; protocol for systematic review”

Introduction

Pulmonary rehabilitation is recognised as the gold standard of care in the management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), however engagement with pulmonary rehabilitation is low and maintenance of a physically active lifestyle in community dwelling adults with COPD is poor. Supporting positive behaviour change in people with COPD could help to increase their engagement with physical activity. This systematic review will examine behaviour change and physical activity interventions delivered to community dwelling adults with COPD with the aim of increasing physical activity engagement. Interventions will be mapped against Michie’s Theoretical Domains Framework.

Methods

The following databases were searched from inception until February 2022:

Web of Science, CENTRAL, MEDLINE (via EBSCO), EMBASE, APA PsychINFO, CINAHL (via EBSCO), AMED, PROSPERO, Cochrane Airways Trials Register. Grey literature will be searched using Grey Literature Report, Open Grey and Google Scholar search engines.

Relevant studies will be systematically reviewed and subject to quality appraisal to determine the impact of behaviour change and physical activity interventions on outcomes of adults with COPD. Interventions will be mapped to Michie’s TDF and a narrative synthesis with respect to nature, effectiveness on target population and setting/environment will be provided. The review will be presented according to the PRISMA guidelines 2020.

Results



Conclusions

This systematic review will consider behaviour change and physical activity interventions for community dwelling adults with all stages of COPD and their impact, if any, on levels of, or engagement with physical activity.

Impact

This systematic review is necessary to explain the impact of behaviour change and physical activity interventions on outcomes of community dwelling people with COPD. The findings may help inform clinical practice and relevant policy change for this important cohort of people with COPD.
