Background: The COVID-19 crisis has disrupted nearly every aspect of daily life, from metabolic function to social and health-related behaviors. Unfortunately, for the 1 billion global persons who live with an impairment that significantly alters daily function (80% of whom live in developing countries where natural disasters and armed conflicts leave 3.5 million refugees and internally displaced people who survive with a physical disability annually), the impact of the pandemic on physical activity, physical inactivity and sedentariness remain unknown.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on perceived physical activity levels, sedentariness, healthy eating habits, sleep habits, and tobacco consumption in community-dwelling persons with disabilities, as compared to those without disabilities.
Design: Prospective cross-sectional study was done with a web-based global survey.
Results: For 3 months, 3550 responses were collected from 65 countries. And 2689 responses without skipped questions were set as full data of analysis. Pre-pandemic healthy lifestyle behaviors showed no significant difference among people with mild-moderate or severe disability and without disability. However, perceived physical and mental health and eating habit changes during the pandemic showed a significant difference in people with and without disabilities. People with disabilities are more likely to report worsening physical and mental health and dietary habits than before. Furthermore, the degree of disability is also significantly affected in terms of physical health. People with severe disabilities reported higher rates of smoking during the pandemic than those without disabilities.
Conclusions: This study showed that the pandemic had a worse effect on people with disabilities than on people without disabilities on perceived physical and mental health and changes in eating habits. |
