Abstract：Objective:To analyze the latent profile analysis and its influencing factors of physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis(KOA),and provide reference for developing targeted intervention measures.Methods:A total of 260 KOA patients from outpatient departments of 3 hospitals in Qingdao were selected as subjects from July to December 2022.A general information questionnaire,International Physical Activity Questionnaire,knee osteoarthritis disease awareness questionnaire,and Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale were used to investigate patients.Results:The physical activity of KOA patients could be divided into two potential categories,one was exercise type(87.3%)and another was work type(12.7%).Age,place of residence,disease awareness,and exercise self-efficacy were the influencing factors of physical activity level.Conclusions:Medical staff should pay attention to the physical activity characteristics of different patients,provide personalized physical activity guidance and nursing interventions,in order to improve patient compliance with exercise,improve their physical activity levels,and delay disease progression.
