Abstract:
Objective To analyze the current status of exercise and exercise self-efficacy (ESE) and its influencing factors in middle-aged and elderly patients with high blood pressure, and to provide a basis for the intervention of patients with hypertension in the community. Methods The stratified random sampling method was used to select 546 patients with hypertension who had received hypertension management for one year in the community. The general condition, exercise condition, and ESE scores were collected using survey questionnaires. Chi-square test was applied to analyze the difference of exercise efficacy score among different characteristic objects, and analysis of regression method was applied to analyze the influencing factors of exercise self-efficacy. Results A total of 546 people were surveyed in this study, of which 67.03% of hypertension patients participated in exercise. The main exercise program was walking healthily (87.43%). A total of 262 people (47.99%) had strong performance on ESE score, while 284 people (52.01%) had weak self-efficacy. The univariate unconditional logistic regression analysis found that there were significant differences in the distribution of educational level, family monthly income, years of hypertension, whether they received the guidance from family doctors, whether they exercised and whether they warmed up before exercise (P<0.05). The multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that educational level of junior high school and low average monthly household income were the risk factors affecting exercise efficacy, and the guidance of family doctors, exercise, and hypertension less than 5 years were the protective factors affecting exercise efficacy. Conclusion The exercise self-efficacy of middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertension in this community is at a medium level, and family doctors should carry out targeted interventions based on influencing factors to improve exercise self-management ability.
