SAPHIR2 : Simplification of PHysical Activity Assessment by Rapid Interrogation

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

actimeter wearing: actimeter wearing during 7 days : recording of physical activity over 7 days using a non-invasive external sensor

physical activities questionnaires: IPAQ and SAPHIR questionnaires

Study summary

A multicentric, non-interventional study using a clinical questionnaire (SAPHIR) and activity monitor (Activ-PAL) to estimate the level of physical activity in the general population.

This study compares the level of physical activity reported by the SAPHIR questionnaire with the activity recorded by the activity monitor during the same period, in order to determine if the SAPHIR score is able to represent the measured physical activity, in a simple and easily calculable manner.

Hypothesis:

The aim of this work is to propose a new questionnaire that is simple to complete by the patient,quick to analyse and directly calculable by the doctor and adapted to the general population, whether during the initial evaluation or the follow-up.

Indeed, these scores are rarely used outside the context of the prescription of physical activity in specialized centers. Moreover, a tool suited to the constraints of community medicine seems necessary, given the growth of the prescription of physical activity in primary care.

The idea behind this new questionnaire is to obtain a score ranging from 0 to 100 that can be calculated through simple mental arithmetic, which is not the case for most existing questionnaires, in particular the IPAQ.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• correlation between SAPHIR score completed at inclusion and the level of physical activity estimated from measurement data collected using the Activ-PAL® activity monitor — 7 days
  A score is based on the time spent at each intensity level of physical activity, using the correlation between cadence and METs extrapolated from the literature (Tudor-Locke et al, 2020). The primary outcome measure is the correlation coefficient between the amount of physical activity estimated by the SAPHIR score and that estimated from the Activ-PAL data.
