Objective:To conduct a scoping review on the application of sedentary behavior intervention in chronic disease patients and identify the delivery carriers, intervention time, intervention content and intervention results, so as to provide guidance for health care personnel to carry out relevant intervention research.Methods:Literature was systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang data from establishment of the databases to June 15, 2023. The included literatures were screened, summarized and analyzed.Results:A total of 25 articles were included, among which the delivery carriers of sedentary behavior intervention included offline guidance, wearable device monitoring, telephone follow-up, mobile phone applications, email and website platform. The most common intervention implementers were rehabilitation therapists, followed by nurses, doctors and psychologists. Intervention durations ranged from 4 weeks to 3 years. Behavioral intervention strategies covered eight aspects, including providing information about behavioral consequences, goal setting, action planning, obstacle identification/problem-solving, behavioral feedback, exploring social support, motivational rewards and restructuring the physical environment. The types of outcome indicators for intervention included sedentary time, physical activity time, physiological indicators, psychological indicators, feasibility evaluation and safety evaluation. The results showed that sedentary behavior intervention not only reduced sedentary behavior in patients with chronic diseases, but also affected their quality of life and self-efficacy.Conclusions:Sedentary behavior intervention has positive effects on sedentary behavior, physical activity, physical health and mental health of patients with chronic diseases. Future research should strengthen the development and application of mobile phone applications and strengthen environmental intervention to further improve the intervention effect.
