Key facts

Total physical activity score [IPAQ]
Total physical activity score
Total weekly physical activity can be reported categorically as low, moderate or high based on the quantitative physical activity result [LOINC77594-0]. The criteria for these levels have been set taking into account that IPAQ asks questions in all domains of daily life, resulting in higher median MET-minutes estimates than would have been estimated from leisure-time participation alone.
