TY - JOUR AU - Schweda, Simone AU - Krauss, Inga PY - 2020 DA - 2020/05/13 TI - Physical activity promotion for multimorbid patients in primary care settings: a protocol for a systematic review evaluating health benefits and harms JO - Systematic Reviews SP - 110 VL - 9 IS - 1 AB - To date multimorbidity has not received much attention in health policies, even though multiple chronic diseases put high demands on the health care system in industrial nations. Enormous costs of care and a physically, mentally, and socially reduced quality of life are common consequences of multimorbidity. Physical activity (PA) has a positive preventive and therapeutic effect on common non-communicable diseases. The objective of this study will be to evaluate the health benefits and harms of PA interventions for sedentary adults with multimorbidity in primary care settings.
