OBJECTIVES: To review publicly available physical activity (PA) resources for individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Aims were to find online print and audiovisual resources, review their characteristics and critically examine their quality from medical, exercise and behavioural science perspectives. DESIGN: An environmental scan was completed using the Google search engine, following a pragmatic approach to reviewing patient-facing self-care resources. DATA SOURCES: We used combinations of common search terms for RA and PA. The first five pages of results were reviewed for patient-facing resources. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Resources were included if they were (1) included RA-specific content, (2) provided specific PA recommendations, (3) written in English and (4) freely available. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: Two independent experts completed a medical review of resources to ensure appropriateness for RA. Data were then extracted by two reviewers using a standardised template to record resource characteristics. Two research team members and two patient partners independently evaluated resources for readability, understandability and actionability. Finally, the quality of exercise recommendations and behaviour change technique use was evaluated by an expert reviewer. RESULTS: The search yielded 23 RA-specific PA resources, 17 of which passed the medical review. All 10 print resources and 7 audiovisual resources were created in English-speaking countries. The mean reading grade was 9.0±1.5. Print resources had mean understandability of 80.0±9.8% and actionability of 60.0±27.7%. Audiovisual materials had mean understandability of 86.0±9.2% and actionability of 86.9±22.9%. The quality of exercise recommendations was low. Only one resource provided comprehensive cardiovascular exercise advice, and two resources provided comprehensive strength exercise advice. 3-14 behaviour change technique groups were featured in each resource. The most common groups were 'shaping knowledge' and 'natural consequences'. CONCLUSIONS: The quality of RA-specific PA resources is variable. Some high-quality resources exist that provide actionable PA behaviour change advice. Healthcare teams may refer patients to these resources. However, more work is needed to improve the overall quality of resources. Codevelopment with patients, providers and exercise behaviour change experts is recommended, ensuring resources are actionable, contain clear exercise recommendations and promote behaviour change.
