Implementation determinants of physical activity interventions in primary health care settings using the TICD framework: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Translation into practice of effective physical activity interventions in primary care is difficult, due to a complex interaction of implementation determinants. We aimed to identify implementation barriers and facilitators of four primary care interventions: physical activity assessment, counselling, prescription, and referral.
