Determinants of physical activity levels and quality of life among older adults in Ghana: insights from cardiometabolic risk (CarMeR) study.
Abstract
Physical activity (PA) is critical for healthy ageing, helping prevent chronic and cardiometabolic conditions, improving quality of life (QoL), and preventing premature mortality among older adults. However, determinants of PA levels and their association with QoL among older adults in Ghana remain understudied. This study examined factors influencing PA levels and QoL among older adults in the Cape Coast Metropolis, Ghana.
