About

Adapted Physical Activity (APA) helps to prevent chronic diseases identified as major causes of mortality, particularly cardiovascular diseases and some cancers, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). However, in general population, physical activity levels are below recommendations for nearly 40% of french adults. In France, general practitioners are now authorised and encouraged to prescribe APA to long-term illness patients.

In Var department in France, the " Maison Sport-Santé 83 " has set up a program called "Cap Sport Santé 83" to support patients who received a prescription to practice APA on a regular basis. This program helps long-term illness patients to restart physical activity by considering their pathology.

The aim of this study is to evaluate " Maison Sport-Santé 83 " APA program effectiveness using a rigorous scientific methodology.
