OBJECTIVES: The spontaneous, sporadic and sometimes unpredictable nature of children's physical activity causes fluctuations in blood glucose level and challenges for children with type 1 diabetes. Physical activity monitoring has potential utility. In this study, we explored the perceptions of physical activity monitoring among health-care professionals and assessed the feasibility and acceptability of using it in the management of pediatric type 1 diabetes.
METHODS: Seven health-care professionals from 1 pediatric diabetes centre in the United Kingdom were involved in a focus group. Data were analyzed thematically. Physical activity monitoring using a wrist-worn monitor was tested for feasibility with 13 children aged 7 to 11 years with type 1 diabetes. The primary outcome was feasibility (i.e. recruitment, adherence, data completion, adverse events and acceptability). Secondary measures were glycemic control, parental self-efficacy for diabetes management and parental fear of hypoglycemia.
RESULTS: Health-care professionals valued having an awareness of the level, type and intensity of children's physical activity. They identified unmet training and resource needs that would facilitate them in being able to give physical activity advice to children and families. Recruitment rate was 20%, adherence to the activity monitoring was good and the study completion rate was 62%. No adverse events were reported. Physical activity monitoring was considered acceptable by parents.
CONCLUSIONS: Physical activity monitoring could be a feasible part of routine clinical practice, but further research is needed to understand whether health-care professionals are best placed to implement it and what impact it has on health outcomes.
