Understanding Students' Vaccination Literacy and Perception in a Middle-Income Country: Case Study from Kazakhstan.

Vaccination is a critical public health measure for preventing infectious diseases, but its acceptance varies globally, influenced by factors like vaccine hesitancy. This study examines attitudes and vaccination literacy among Kazakh students, providing insights into global immunization strategies. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 3142 students from various Kazakh universities. The HLS19-VAC instrument assessed vaccination literacy, while additional questions evaluated beliefs and attitudes toward vaccines. Data were analyzed to determine associations between vaccine-related beliefs and literacy. The mean vaccination literacy score was 84.74. Most students agreed on the importance (83.4%), safety (79.1%), effectiveness (80.9%), and religious compatibility (77.8%) of vaccines. Positive beliefs significantly correlated with higher literacy scores. Past vaccination behavior, age, gender, and location showed varied associations, with past vaccination status and higher age showing a positive correlation. Positive beliefs about vaccinations were strongly associated with higher vaccination literacy among Kazakh students. Educational interventions that reinforce positive beliefs may improve vaccination literacy and increase vaccination rates. This study underscores the importance of understanding vaccination attitudes to enhance public health strategies in middle-income countries.

Electronic Health Record Implementation Enhances Financial Performance in High Medicaid Nursing Homes.

Introduction: The nursing home (NH) industry operates within a two-tiered system, wherein high Medicaid NHs which disproportionately serve marginalized populations, exhibit poorer quality of care and financial performance. Utilizing the resource-based view of the firm, this study aimed to investigate the association between electronic health record (EHR) implementation and financial performance in high Medicaid NHs. A positive correlation could allow high Medicaid NHs to leverage technology to enhance efficiency and financial health, thereby establishing a business case for EHR investments. Methods: Data from 2017 to 2018 were sourced from mail surveys sent to the Director of Nursing in high Medicaid NHs (defined as having 85% or more Medicaid census, excluding facilities with over 10% private pay or 8% Medicare), and secondary sources like LTCFocus.org and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services cost reports. From the initial sample of 1,050 NHs, a 37% response rate was achieved (391 surveys). Propensity score inverse probability weighting was used to account for potential non-response bias. The independent variable, EHR Implementation Score (EIS), was calculated as the sum of scores across five EHR functionalities-administrative, documentation, order entry, results viewing, and clinical tools-and reflected the extent of electronic implementation. The dependent variable, total margin, represented NH financial performance. A multivariable linear regression model was used, adjusting for organizational and market-level control variables that may independently affect NH financial performance. Results: Approximately 76% of high Medicaid NHs had implemented EHR either fully or partially (n = 391). The multivariable regression model revealed that a one-unit increase in EIS was associated with a 0.12% increase in the total margin (p = 0.05, CI: -0.00-0.25). Conclusion: The findings highlight a potential business case -long-term financial returns for the initial investments required for EHR implementation. Nonetheless, policy interventions including subsidies may still be necessary to stimulate EHR implementation, particularly in high Medicaid NHs.

Federally Qualified Health Centers' Screening for Social Risk Factors and Health Outcomes.

Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) are ideally positioned to identify and address health-related social needs, but little is understood about the relationship between social risk factor (SRF) screening and health outcomes. We studied 1352 FQHCs from the 2019 Uniform Data System. Ordinary least squares regression was used to estimate the relationship between SRF screening and the percentage of patients with adequately controlled diabetes and hypertension. Results show 71% of the FQHCs in the sample collected SRFs. FQHCs' screened for SRFs had higher percentages of patients with adequately controlled diabetes (69.5% vs 67.0%, P < .001) and hypertension (63.8% vs 59.4%, P < .001) relative to FQHCs not collecting SRFs.

COVID-19 Pandemic Impact on Nursing Homes Financial Performance.

Nursing homes expressed concern about potential severe adverse financial outcomes of COVID-19, with worries extending to the possibility of some facilities facing closure. Maintaining a strong financial well-being is crucial, and there were concerns that the pandemic might have significantly impacted both expenses and income. This longitudinal study aimed to analyze the financial performance of nursing homes during COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, we examined the impact of the pandemic on nursing home operating margins, operating revenue per resident day, and operating cost per resident day. The study utilized secondary data from various sources, including CMS Medicare cost reports, Brown University's Long Term Care Focus (LTCFocus), CMS Payroll-Based Journal, CMS Care Compare, Area Health Resource File, Provider Relief Fund distribution data, and CDC's NH COVID-19 public file. The sample consisted of 45 833 nursing home-year observations from 2018 to 2021. Fixed-effects regression analysis was employed to assess the impact of the pandemic on financial performance while controlling for various organizational and market characteristics. The study found that nursing homes' financial performance deteriorated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating margins decreased by approximately 4.3%, while operating costs per resident day increased by $26.51, outweighing the increase in operating revenue per resident day by about $17. Occupancy rates, payer mix, and staffing intensity were found to impact financial performance. The study highlights the significant financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on nursing homes. While nursing homes faced substantial financial strains, the findings offered lessons for the future, underscoring the need for nursing homes to improve the accuracy of their cost reports and enhance financial transparency and accountability.

Cost Implications of Competition Among Federally Qualified Health Centers.

Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) are pivotal in delivering healthcare services to underserved populations in the United States. While the number of FQHCs and FQHC look-alikes has been increasing, intensifying competition, limited research has examined the cost implications associated with this growing competition among FQHCs. This study aims to fill the research gap by analyzing the relationship between the level of competition among FQHCs and the cost of care per patient. Understanding this relationship is crucial for managers and policymakers in deriving informed decisions related to the expansion of FQHCs. The study comprehensively analyzed data from FQHCs from 2016 to 2022. The analysis involved examining the cost per patient in relation to the level of FQHC competition, measured by FQHC saturation in the area. The study's findings reveal a positive association between FQHC competition and the cost of care. Specifically, FQHCs in areas with higher levels of FQHC competition reported a higher cost per patient. This relationship underscores the potential financial dynamics influenced by the competitive environment among FQHCs. The results of this study have important implications for healthcare management and policy formulation. FQHC managers are suggested to consider the cost implications of increased competition in their strategic planning and operations. Meanwhile, policymakers should consider the potential cost ramifications of FQHC competition when designing and implementing policies related to FQHC expansion, especially those aimed at optimizing resource allocation and ensuring care affordability. Recognizing the impact of competition on cost can lead to more informed decisions regarding the funding, establishment, and distribution of FQHCs, ultimately contributing to the sustainability and efficacy of healthcare services in underserved areas.

Beyond the Balance Sheet: Investigating the Association Between NHA Turnover and Nursing Home Financial Performance.

Introduction: Nursing homes (NHs) serve as a safety net for vulnerable populations such as older adults and people with disabilities. Nursing Home Administrators (NHAs) play a crucial role in managing the daily operations of NHs, including overseeing direct care staff and establishing the facility's strategic direction. Unfortunately, NHs have consistently faced high NHA turnover rates, which have been linked to poor organizational performance. This study aims to investigate the relationship between NHA turnover and financial performance in NHs. Methods: Using an integrated perspective based on the upper echelons theory and the resource-based view of the firm, we investigated the association between NHA turnover and financial peformance using multiple secondary data sources, such as the Care Compare: Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting Program and Brown University's Long Term Care Focus. We conducted a cross-sectional study using a multivariate linear regression model, measuring financial performance using operating margin while NHA turnover represents the number of administrators that left the organization. Results: Our findings indicate that NHs with higher NHA turnover rates have lower operating margins. Specifically, compared to facilities with no turnover, one NHA turnover is associated with a 1.14% decrease in operating margin, and two or more turnovers are associated with a 2.25% decrease. Discussion: This study contributes to the existing literature by demonstrating the financial impact of NHA turnover and provides further evidence of the need for targeted organizational and policy interventions to improve NHA retention.

Association of hospital and market characteristics with 30-day readmission rates from 2009 to 2015.

Objectives: The US government implemented the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program on 1 October 2012 to reduce readmission rates through financial penalties to hospitals with excessive readmissions. We conducted a pooled cross-sectional analysis of US hospitals from 2009 to 2015 to determine the association of the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program with 30-day readmissions. Methods: We utilized multivariable linear regression with year and state fixed effects. The model was adjusted for hospital and market characteristics lagged by 1 year. Interaction effects of hospital and market characteristics with the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program indicator variable was also included to assess whether associations of Hospital Readmission Reduction Program with 30-day readmissions differed by these characteristics. Results: In multivariable adjusted analysis, the main effect of the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program was a 3.80 percentage point (p < 0.001) decrease in readmission rates in 2013-2015 relative to 2009-2012. Hospitals with lower readmission rates overall included not-for-profit and government hospitals, medium and large hospitals, those in markets with a larger percentage of Hispanic residents, and population 65 years and older. Higher hospital readmission rates were observed among those with higher licensed practical nurse staffing ratio, larger Medicare and Medicaid share, and less competition. Statistically significant interaction effects between hospital/market characteristics and the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program on the outcome of 30-day readmission rates were present. Teaching hospitals, rural hospitals, and hospitals in markets with a higher percentage of residents who were Black experienced larger decreases in readmission rates. Hospitals with larger registered nurse staffing ratios and in markets with higher uninsured rate and percentage of residents with a high school education or greater experienced smaller decreases in readmission rates. Conclusion: Findings of the current study support the effectiveness of the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program but also point to the need to consider the ability of hospitals to respond to penalties and incentives based on their characteristics during policy development.

Examining Knowledge Management and the Culture Change Movement in Long-Term Care: A Study of High-Medicaid-Census Nursing Homes.

High-quality nursing home (NH) care has long been a challenge within the United States. For decades, policymakers at the state and federal levels have adopted and implemented regulations to target critical components of NH care outcomes. Simultaneously, our delivery system continues to change the role of NHs in patient care. For example, more acute patients are cared for in NHs, and the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has implemented value payment programs targeting NH settings. As a part of these growing pressures from the broader healthcare delivery system, the culture-change movement has emerged among NHs over the past two decades, prompting NHs to embody more person-centered care as well as promote settings which resemble someone's home, as opposed to institutionalized healthcare settings. Researchers have linked culture change to high-quality outcomes and the ability to adapt and respond to the ever-changing pressures brought on by changes in our regulatory and delivery system. Making enduring culture change within organizations has long been a challenge and focus in NHs. Despite research suggesting that culture-change initiatives that promote greater resident-centered care are associated with several desirable patient outcomes, their adoption and implementation by NHs are resource intensive, and research has shown that NHs with high percentages of low-income residents are especially challenged to adopt these initiatives. This chapter takes a novel approach to examine factors that impact the adoption of culture-change initiatives by assessing knowledge management and the role of knowledge management activities in promoting the adoption of innovative care delivery models among under-resourced NHs throughout the United States. Using primary data from a survey of NH administrators, we conducted logistic regression models to assess the relationship between knowledge management and the adoption of a culture-change initiative as well as whether these relationships were moderated by leadership and staffing stability. Our study found that NHs were more likely to adopt a culture-change initiative when they had more robust knowledge management activities. Moreover, knowledge management activities were particularly effective at promoting adoption in NHs that struggle with leadership and nursing staff instability. Our findings support the notion that knowledge management activities can help NHs acquire and mobilize informational resources to support the adoption of care delivery innovations, thus highlighting opportunities to more effectively target efforts to stimulate the adoption and spread of these initiatives.

High Medicaid Nursing Homes: Contextual Factors Associated with the Availability of Specialized Resources Required to Care for Obese Residents.

Obesity is an increasingly important concern in the delivery of high-quality nursing home care. Obese nursing home residents require specialized equipment and resources. As high Medicaid nursing homes have limited financial ability, they may lack the necessary resources to address the needs of obese residents. Moreover, there are variations in the availability of obesity-related specialized resources across these facilities. This study aims to investigate the organizational and market factors associated with the availability of obesity-related specialized resources in high-Medicaid nursing homes. Survey and secondary data sources for the study period 2017-2018 were utilized. The survey data were merged with Brown University's Long Term Care Focus (LTCFocus), Nursing Home Compare, and Area Health Resource File datasets. The dependent variable was the composite score of obesity-related specialized resources, ranging from 0-19. An ordinary least square regression with propensity score weights (to adjust for potential survey non-response bias), along with appropriate organizational/market level control variables were used for our analysis. Our results suggest that payer-mix (>Medicare residents) and a higher proportion of obese residents were positively associated with the availability of obesity-related specialized resources. Policymakers should consider implementing incentives, such as increased Medicaid payments, to assist high Medicaid nursing homes in addressing the specific needs of obese residents.

Are Hospice Google Ratings Correlated With Patient Experience Scores? Evidence from a National Hospice Study.

Background: Choosing hospice care for your loved ones is often challenging. Online ratings such as Google rating has become a go-to source for most consumers. The Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) Survey for Hospice also provides quality information about hospice care to help patients and their families make decisions. Aim: To evaluate the perceived usefulness of publicly reported hospice quality indicators and compare hospice Google ratings with hospice CAHPS scores. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was performed to test the relationship between Google ratings and CAHPS measures in 2020. We conducted descriptive statistics for all variables. Multivariate regressions were used to assess the relationship between Google ratings and the CAHPS scores of the sample. Results: Among our sample of 1,956 hospices, the average Google rating was 4.2 out of 5 stars. CAHPS score means ranged from 75 (Help for pain and symptoms) to 90 (Treating patients with respect) out of 100. Hospice Google ratings were highly correlated with hospice CAHPS scores. For-profit and chain-affiliated hospices reported lower CAHPS scores. Hospice operational time was positively associated with CAHPS scores. The percentage of minority residents in the community and residents' educational level was negatively associated with CAHPS scores. Conclusions: Hospice Google ratings were highly correlated with patients' and families' experience scores as measured by the CAHPS survey. Consumers can use information from both resources in making decisions about hospice care.

The Association Between Federally Qualified Health Centers' Medical Training Programs and Clinical Outcomes.

This study examined whether an association exists between federally qualified health centers' (FQHCs') provision of medical training programs and clinical outcomes. Employing a cross-sectional data analysis of the sample FQHCs in the year 2019, the study found that FQHCs with medical training programs provided higher rates of immunization, screenings for cervical cancer, tobacco, statin use, and colorectal cancer. The FQHCs with medical training programs also reported a higher percentage of hypertensive patients properly managing blood pressure level. The results indicated that an FQHC providing medical training, as part of its organizational structure, may have a positive influence on patient outcomes.

The Self-Sustainability of Federally Qualified Health Centers: Examining the Impact of Medicaid Expansion.

States' decisions to expand Medicaid eligibility would make most low-income uninsured people eligible for Medicaid, while also increasing the financial viability of Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) by reducing their grant to total revenue ratios. We extracted a national sample of 729 FQHCs for the period 2009 to 2018. The dependent variable was grant to revenue ratio and the independent variable was the states' Medicaid expansion status. FQHCs operating in Medicaid expansion states had lower grant ratios during the postexpansion period. As past decades' funding volatilities have shown, overreliance on one revenue source may increase financial risk. Medicaid expansion can support FQHCs by improving their long-term financial sustainability.

Multiple Electronic Health Record-Based Measures of Social Determinants of Health to Predict Return to the Emergency Department Following Discharge.

Health care systems continue to struggle with preventing 30-day readmissions to their institutions. Social determinants of health (SDOH) are important predictors of repeat visits to the hospital. In many health systems, SDOH data are limited to those variables that are most relevant to care delivery or payment (eg, race, gender, insurance status). Despite calls for integrating a more robust set of measures (eg, measures of health behaviors and living conditions) into the electronic health record (EHR), these data often have missing values necessitating the use of imputation to build a comprehensive picture of patients who are likely to return to the health system. Using logistic regression analyses and imputation of missing data from 2017 to 2018, this study uses measures found in the EHR (eg, tobacco use, living situation, problems at home, education) to assess those SDOH that might predict a return to the emergency department within 30 days of discharge from a health system. In both imputed and raw data, the total number of recorded health conditions was the most important predictor and collectively SDOH variables made a relatively small contributions in determining the likelihood of a return to the hospital. Although SDOH variables might be important in the design of programs aimed at preventing readmissions, they may not be useful in readmission predictive models.

Where Are the New Federally Qualified Health Center Sites? Uncovering FQHC Expansion and Ambulatory Care Policy Implications.

So-called "geographic expansion race," health care organizations expand physical facilities to different geographical locations as a way to foster growth. This study furthers knowledge on Federally Qualified Health Centers' (FQHCs') geographical expansion in relation to the local market's payer mix. The results indicated that areas with a higher proportion of Medicaid patients with fewer uninsured are more likely to see new FQHC sites opening. The findings are consistent with previous literature on the health care organization's geographical expansion and also indicated that some areas might lack proper FQHC services despite the high needs.

The organizational and environmental characteristics associated with hospitals' use of intensivists.

BACKGROUND: As large numbers of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients were admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) in 2020 and 2021, the United States faced a shortage of critical care providers. Intensivists are physicians specializing in providing care in the ICU. Although studies have explored the clinical and financial benefits associated with the use of intensivists, little is known about the organizational and market factors associated with a hospital administrator's strategic decision to use intensivists. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to use the resource dependence theory to better understand the organizational and market factors associated with a hospital administrator's decision to use intensivists. METHODOLOGY: The sample consisted of the national acute care hospitals (N = 4,986) for the period 2007-2017. The dependent variable was the number of full-time equivalent intensivists staffed in hospitals. The independent variables were organizational and market-level factors. A negative binomial regression model with state and year fixed effects, clustered at the hospital level, was used to examine the relationship between the use of intensivists and organizational and market factors. RESULTS: The results from the analyses show that administrators of larger, not-for-profit hospitals that operate in competitive urban markets with relatively high levels of munificence are more likely to utilize intensivists. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: When significant strains are placed on ICUs like what was experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative that hospital administrators understand how to best staff their ICUs. With a better understanding of the organizational and market factors associated with the use of intensivists, practitioners and policymakers alike can better understand how to strategically utilize intensivists in the ICU, especially in the face of a continuing pandemic.

Active Video Gaming Using an Adapted Gaming Mat in Youth and Adults With Physical Disabilities: Observational Study.

BACKGROUND: A common leisure-time activity amongst youth and adults in the United States is video gameplay. Playing video games is typically a sedentary endeavor; however, to encourage an increased level of physical activity in an engaging and enjoyable way, active video gaming has become popular. Unfortunately, the accessibility of gaming controllers is often an issue for persons with disabilities. A commercial off-the-shelf (OTS) gaming mat was adapted to facilitate use by individuals with mobility impairments to address this issue. OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to examine energy expenditure, enjoyment, and gameplay experience in youth and adults with mobility impairment during active video gaming using an OTS and adapted versions of a gaming mat. METHODS: The study used an observational design. During visit 1, physical function was assessed, and participants were given a familiarization period with the gaming system. For visit 2, based on observation during the physical function tests and discussion with the participant, it was decided whether the participant would play in a standing or seated position. For standing gameplay, the mat was placed on the floor, and for seated play, the mat was placed on a height-adjustable and tilt-adjustable tabletop. Metabolic data were collected during a 20-minute baseline and four 10-minute bouts of Wii Fit Plus gameplay, with 2 bouts on each of the mats (adapted and OTS). During gameplay, the research staff observed and rated participants' ability to use the game controller (mat) and the quality of gameplay. At the end of each game set, participants reported their rating of perceived exertion on a scale from 0 to 10. During rest, participants completed the physical activity enjoyment scale. Participants also answered additional questions regarding the system's usability with each controller (adapted mat and OTS mat). Statistical analyses were computed using Stata 16 (version 16.1; StataCorp). Linear mixed-effects maximum likelihood regression was performed separately for individuals who could play standing and for those who played seated. RESULTS: A convenience sample of 78 individuals with mobility impairments between the ages of 12 and 60 years (mean 39.6, SD 15.8) participated in the study. Of the sample, 48 participants played the video games in a seated position, while 30 played the games standing. Energy expenditure and heart rate tended to be higher in the OTS mat condition for seated players, while values were similar for both conditions among standing players. However, seated participants reported greater gameplay experience, and both groups exhibited a higher quality of gameplay during the adapted mat condition. CONCLUSIONS: Active video gaming using an adapted gaming mat provided an enjoyable exercise activity for individuals with mobility impairments. The use of the adapted controller provides a means by which this population can engage in light to moderate intensity active video gaming, thereby reducing sedentary leisure time.

High-Minority Nursing Homes Disproportionately Affected by COVID-19 Deaths.

Racial/ethnic disparities in healthcare have been highlighted by the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Using the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' Nursing Home COVID-19 Public File, this study examined the relationship between nursing home racial/ethnic mix and COVID-19 resident mortality. As of October 25, 2020, high minority nursing homes reported 6.5 COVID-19 deaths as compared to 2.6 deaths for nursing homes that had no racial/ethnic minorities. After controlling for interstate differences, facility-level resident characteristics, resource availability, and organizational characteristics, high-minority nursing homes had 61% more COVID-19 deaths [Incidence Rate Ratio (IRR) = 1.61; p < 0.001] as compared to nursing facilities with no minorities. From a policy perspective, nursing homes, that serve primarily minority populations, may need additional resources, such as, funding for staffing and personal protective equipment in the face of the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has sharpened the focus on healthcare disparities and societal inequalities in the delivery of long-term care.

Are community health centers' chief executive officers' compensation related to clinical performance?

BACKGROUND: Most research of chief executive officer (CEO) compensation in the health care industry has been limited to hospitals. This study expands our knowledge of CEO compensation into the nonhospital areas of the industry, specifically community health centers (CHCs). CHCs are safety-net providers that are an integral part of the U.S. health delivery system for medically underserved populations. Since the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the federal government has created financial incentives for CHCs to improve care through access and quality performance criteria. To promote quality improvement, CEOs need to set their organization's priorities. One method used to achieve this goal is to tie the CEO's compensation to the organization's quality performance. However, there is a gap in our knowledge if CHCs' CEOs compensation is associated with quality performance outcomes. PURPOSE: The primary aim of this study was to examine the relationship between clinical performance and CEO compensation in CHCs. METHODS/APPROACH: Agency, social comparison, and managerial power theories guided this research, which examines the relationship of clinical performance and CEO compensation. Secondary data on Uniform Data System's CHC clinical performance combined with CEO compensation from Internal Revenue Service Form 990 were analyzed using generalized estimating equations with state and year fixed effects on a national sample of section 330 grant-funded CHCs (N = 984) for the period 2011-2016. RESULTS: We found no evidence that clinical performance was associated with CHCs' CEO compensation. Except for race, all other CEO characteristics were positively associated with CEO compensation and in line with previous research. We found that non-White CEOs were compensated more than White CEOs. In addition, further subanalyses revealed that an increase in the highest paid employees' compensation was associated with an increase in CEO compensation. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The findings of this study can assist Health Resources and Services Administration improve its assessment policies in funding allocation to CHCs, as well as help board members make informed decisions regarding tying CEO compensation to predetermined performance metrics.

Correlates of adherence in a home-based, self-managed exercise program tailored to wheelchair users with spinal cord injury.

STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional design. OBJECTIVES: To examine personal factors, secondary health conditions, and environmental factors as potential correlates of adherence to a 12-week home-based exercise trial in people with spinal cord injury. SETTING: Home METHODS: Participants (n = 28) were prescribed a set of exercise videos that they were asked to complete three times each week for 12 weeks (36 total sessions). The videos were accessible through a custom-designed mobile application and included movements targeting strength, cardiorespiratory fitness, and balance that were accompanied with music. Watched video minutes were automatically recorded on the web-based platform. At baseline, participants completed self-report questionnaires that measured personal (e.g., age, self-efficacy) and environmental (e.g., barriers) factors and secondary health conditions (e.g., depression). Data were analyzed using quantile (median) regression analysis. RESULTS: Race (African American; ß = -65.62, p = 0.004), community barriers (ß = -9.12, p = 0.026), anxiety (ß = -3.84, p = <0.001), depression (ß = -1.42, p = 0.038), physical function (ß = -1.35, p = 0.048), and self-efficacy (ß = -0.61, p = 0.007) were associated with a lower number of exercise video minutes. Pain intensity (ß = 2.03, p = 0.032), pain interference (ß = 1.84, p = 0.012), and age (ß = 1.13, p = 0.013) were associated with a higher number of exercise video minutes. Total variance explained by the model was 77% (pseudo R2 = 0.77). CONCLUSIONS: Factors associated with lower and higher adherence to home-based exercise should guide future research efforts in creating more precision-based approaches for self-managed home exercise.
