Cardiometabolic, dietary and physical health in graduate paramedics during the first 12-months of practice - a longitudinal study
Conclusions: Dietary patterns, HRQoL, cardiometabolic health, aerobic capacity and physical activity levels did not change meaningfully in the first year of practice. Some dietary behaviors and physical activity levels could be improved and may mitigate health effects of exposure to shift work. Long-term follow-up of this group may aid in developing programs to enhance health for paramedics and other health workers.PMID:34232788 | DOI:10.1080/10903127.2021.1949081
