Poster presented at NETNEP 2022: 8th International Nurse Education Conference, Sitges, Spain

Introduction: Regular physical activity (PA) reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and some cancers (Lee et al., 2012), but worldwide 25% of adults do not meet global recommendations for PA (World Health Organisation, 2018).

Justification, rationale and methodological approaches to realist reviews (2022)
Journal Article
Pearsons, A., Neubeck, L., Hendricks, J., & Hanson, C. (2023). Justification, rationale and methodological approaches to realist reviews. European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 22(1), 107-112. https://doi.org/10.1093/eurjcn/zvac068

Realist reviews offer a method to understand why an intervention is successful or not. Many factors influence how complex healthcare interventions are delivered and this makes understanding what works difficult. Effectiveness depends on delivery cont...
