Impact of a Structured Therapeutic Education Session on the Practice of Adapted Physical Activity in Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Sponsor: University Hospital, Toulouse
Summary
Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD; including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) significantly impact patients' quality of life. Among non-pharmacological therapies, adapted physical activity (APA) has demonstrated its beneficial impact, particularly on fatigue, anxiety, digestive symptoms, and the overall quality of life of patients with IBD. The real-world implementation of APA remains insufficient, primarily due to limited patient adherence to this prescription. Patient therapeutic education (PTE) represents a potentially powerful lever for promoting engagement in APA by addressing barriers related to a lack of awareness (fear of symptom worsening) and lack of motivation. No dedicated study has specifically evaluated the effect of targeted PTE sessions on adherence to physical activity in IBD. The objective of the present feasibility study will be to determine whether a single therapeutic education session focused on the digestive and systemic benefits of APA has an impact on the rate of physical activity practice in the medium term among patients with IBD in clinical remission for at least 3 months.
