Duran AT, Pascual CB, Goldsmith J, et al. - Stroke survivors accrued a lower volume of physical activity (PA), higher volume of sedentary time, and showed accrual patterns of more prolonged sedentary bouts and shorter, lower intensity activity breaks than non-stroke survivors.

• The REGARDS study (Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke) included 401 adults with an adjudicated or self-reported stroke and 1,203 age-, sex-, race-, region-of-residence-, and BMI-matched participants without a history of stroke.

• When stroke survivors were compared with controls, sedentary time and mean sedentary bout duration were higher, and PA were lower.

• Stroke survivors also had fewer activity breaks, which were shorter and lower in intensity than controls.
