LOINC Code


LOINC code77594-0
nameTotal physical activity [IPAQ]
descriptionComputation of total weekly physical activity as a continuous variable for the short form requires summation of the duration (in minutes) and frequency (days) of walking, moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity activities. Domain specific estimates cannot be estimated. The activity level is reported in MET-minutes/week or MET-minutes/day, although the former is more frequently used and is thus suggested. This quantitative total weekly physical activity result can be transformed into a categorical result using [LOINC: 77595-7].

scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256

formula (readable)Total physical activity MET-minutes/week can be calculated two ways: 1. Total physical activity MET-minutes/week = Total (Walking + Moderate + Vigorous) MET-minutes/week, 2. Total physical activity MET-minutes/week = sum of Total Work + Total Transport + Total Domestic and Garden + Total Leisure-Time MET-minutes/week
