Abstract

Lifestyle Medicine Virtual Group Visits (LMVGVs) have potential for providing effective lifestyle education and counseling to patients who have or are at risk for chronic disease. The purpose of this study was to assess primary care patients’ motivations for participation in and preferences for future engagement with LMVGVs. This was a cross-sectional survey conducted in an academic community-based clinic. A total of 111 patients who signed up for LMVGVs between September 2020 and August 2021 completed the survey between February and April 2022. Patient demographics and LMVGV attendance data were collected from the medical record. The most common reported reasons for signing up for LMVGVs were to focus on lifestyle changes and to lower chronic disease risk. The most common reasons for attending subsequent LMVGVs were the focus on healthy lifestyle changes and the positive focus of the groups. Almost all (98%) respondents who attended ≥5 LMVGVs indicated they would recommend LMVGVs to family or friends. Most respondents preferred monthly LMVGVs, including 71% of those who attended ≥5 LMVGVs. These findings inform efforts to develop LMVGVs that are feasible and acceptable to patients, contributing to the promotion of lifestyle behaviors that aid in the prevention and treatment of chronic disease.

患者对生活方式医学虚拟小组访问的看法
生活方式医学虚拟团体就诊(LMVGVs)可为慢性病患者或有慢性病风险的患者提供有效的生活方式教育和咨询。本研究旨在评估初级保健患者参与 LMVGV 的动机和未来参与的偏好。这是一项在一家学术性社区诊所进行的横断面调查。在 2022 年 2 月至 4 月期间,共有 111 名在 2020 年 9 月至 2021 年 8 月期间注册 LMVGV 的患者完成了调查。从病历中收集了患者的人口统计学特征和 LMVGV 就诊数据。据报告,报名参加 LMVGV 的最常见原因是关注生活方式的改变和降低慢性病风险。参加后续 LMVGV 的最常见原因是关注健康生活方式的改变和小组的积极焦点。几乎所有参加 LMVGV≥5 次的受访者(98%)都表示会向家人或朋友推荐 LMVGV。大多数受访者倾向于每月参加一次 LMVGV,其中 71% 的受访者参加了≥5 次 LMVGV。这些研究结果为开发可行且能为患者接受的 LMVGV 提供了参考,有助于推广有助于预防和治疗慢性疾病的生活方式行为。
