| Popis: | BACKGROUND Physical activity and aerobic fitness are modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) after childhood cancer. How survivors engage in physical activity remains unclear, potentially increasing CVD risk. We assessed survivors' physical activity levels, barriers and enablers, fitness, and identified predictors of fitness and physical activity stage of change. METHODS Childhood cancer survivors (CCS; 8-18 years old) ≥1 year post-treatment were assessed for aerobic fitness (6-min walk test), used to extrapolate VO2max , and body composition (InBody 570). Survivors self-reported physical activity to determine stage of change (Patient-Centered Assessment and Counselling for Exercise). Physical activity and fitness were compared with guidelines and CVD-risk cut-points (VO2max |
