Implementation and evaluation of Exercise is Medicine in primary care clinics within a large academic health system.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility, implementation, and effectiveness of the Exercise is Medicine (EIM) initiative. Researchers used a combination of the Practical Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model (PRISM) and the Learning Evaluation model to implement EIM; data was collected from the EHR, including Physical Activity Vital Sign (PAVS) scores, and also from qualitative surveys and interviews with the patients, clinicians, and staff of 5 primary care clinics within a large academic health system. The results indicated that EIM is feasible for routine primary care practice within a large academic health system. The researchers concluded that EIM is a model to emulate to help primary care providers address healthy lifestyle behaviors more efficiently.
