OP109 Multiple risk behaviour interventions in overweight and obese adults: systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract

Participants preferred individual self-monitoring and goal-setting to social features of the app.There were no significant changes in sedentary time; participants perceived a need for more opportunities for breaks in the workplace. Mental health-related quality of life improved from baseline to month 8 (SF-12 mental component score +1.75 points, 95% CI 0.28-3.23). Despite interview-reported improvements in health and wellbeing, survey-assessed changes in physical health-related quality of life, perceived stress and perceived productivity were not statistically significant.Conclusion mHealth technology is a potentially impactful, feasible and acceptable intervention for increasing PA in the police force, particularly for less active officers and staff. The intervention was less useful for reducing sedentary time and the impact on health, wellbeing, stress and productivity is unclear.
