We sought to investigate the gap between HCPs’ knowledge and practice from an international perspective. Methods An online questionnaire was administered to HCPs working in cancer care between February 2020 and February 2021. The questionnaire assessed knowledge, beliefs, and practices regarding exercise counselling and referral of cancer survivors to exercise programs. Results The questionnaire was completed by 375 participants classifed as medical practitioners (42%), nurses (28%), exercise specialists (14%), and non-exercise allied health practitioners (16%). Between 35 and 50% of participants self-reported poor knowledge of when, how, and which cancer survivors to refer to exercise programs or professionals, and how to counsel based on exercise guidelines. Commonly reported barriers to exercise counselling were safety concerns, time constraints, cancer survivors being told to rest by friends and family, and not knowing how to screen people for suitability to exercise (40–48%). Multivariable logistic regression models including age, gender, practitioner group, leisure-time physical activity, and recall of guidelines found signifcant efects for providing specifc exercise advice (χ2 (7)=117.31, p<.001), discussing the role of exercise in symptom management (χ2 (7)=65.13, p<.001) and cancer outcomes (χ2 (7)=58.69, p<.001), and referring cancer survivors to an exercise program or specialist (χ2 (7)=72.76, p<.001). Conclusion Additional education and practical support are needed to equip HCPs to provide cancer survivors with exercise guidelines, resources, and referrals to exercise specialists. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/29656 | ISSN: | 09414355 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00520-022-07342-6 | Rights: | © Springer Nature | Type: | Article | Affiliation: | Cyprus University of Technology University of South Australia University of California at Irvine University of Turku The Chinese University of Hong Kong Command Hospital Air Force University of Toronto Monash University University of Melbourne Swinburne University of Technology Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre Flinders University Edith Cowan University Queensland University of Technology University of Notre Dame Australia National Cancer Institute King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre Flinders Medical Centre and Flinders University Ghent University University of Toronto |
