"Sport on Prescription" in Primary Care for Patients With Long-term Illnesses

To evaluate the program impact on quality of life by the mental health and physical components of SF-36 questionnaire

A high score corresponds to better health/quality of life.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

To evaluate physical activity by 6-minute walk test

The 6-minute walk test allows to classify patients according to their functional capacity degree (4 categories: no limitation, minimal limitation, moderate limitation, severe limitation) by measuring the distance covered by patients in 6 minutes.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

To evaluate physical activity by 30-Second Sit to Stand Test

Patients will be asked to sit down and stand up without using arms, as many times as possible in 30 seconds. Number of completed repetitions will be recorded. The more repetitions the patient does, the greater the muscle power of the lower limbs.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Physical activity and sedentary behaviour measured by the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ)

The GPAQ is an instrument to evaluate duration of vigorous and moderate physical activities covering 3 domains: activities at work, recreational domains and transport domains. Activity is calculated in MET value and classify patients according to 3 levels of physical activity defined as highly active, moderate and low.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Body composition measured by ultrasound and waist measurement.

Total mass, percentage of fat mass, percentage of lean mass will be measured by ultrasound and recorded as well as waist measurement.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Heart rate and heart rate variability measured with a heart rate monitor

Heart rate will be recorded

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Quality of motivation to physical activity measured by the Motivation to Engage in Physical Activity in the Health Context Scale (EMAPS)

The EMAPS is a motivation scale toward health-oriented physical activity in French which includes 6 components of motivation underlined by self-determination theory. The higher the component scores, the higher the form of motivation associated with that component.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

To measure Body Mass Index (BMI)

Weight and height will be recorded.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

To measure Blood pressure by tensiometer

Blood pressure will be recorded.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Physical activity and sedentary behaviour measured by accelerometry

Accelerometry evaluate a subject's physical activity using sensors (accelerometers) that measure the body's accelerations and decelerations

Time frame: Up to 6 months

Balance function

Patient's balance will be assessed thanks to an equilibrium test on one foot. Time before equilibrium loss will be measured by means of a chronometer.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Hand muscle strength

Hand muscle strength will be evaluated thank to a dynamometer which will have to be clutched as much as possible by the patient.

Time frame: Up to 12 months

Trunk flexibility

Trunk flexibility will be assessed through a forward bend test. Once the patient has reached his maximal position, the distance between ground and his fingertips will be measured.

Time frame: Up to 12 months
