Long-term health-enhancing physical activity in rheumatoid arthritis - the PARA 2010 study Full Text
BMC Public Health, 06/08/2012
Nordgren B et al. – The PARA 2010 project is designed to expand the knowledge on Health–enhancing physical activity (HEPA) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by a progressive approach regarding population, setting, intervention, time frames and outcome measures. To the knowledge this is the first long–term HEPA program based on Social Cognitive Theory, and performed in a real life environment to demonstrate if this new setting can promote increased and maintained physical activity in people with RA.
