BACKGROUND: @entity1652 ( @entity1652 ), such as bicycle desks and treadmill desks, can contribute to weight gain prevention and disease risk-reduction. Little is known about the extent to which adults with diverse health risk factors are interested in using @entity1652 . METHODS: Primary care @entity1 aged 18 to 65 years at 2 outpatient clinics in Central Pennsylvania completed a cross-sectional survey in April, 2014 to assess interest in using "a small pedaling device under the desk" and "walking on a treadmill with a desk attached" if these options were provided at no cost. Demographic and health risk factors were also assessed. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations of demographic and health risk factors with interest in using @entity1652 . RESULTS: Among 240 @entity1 , 106 (44.2%) reported interest in using @entity1652 . Of these 106 @entity1 , interest in using a bicycle desk (91.5%) was higher than interest in using a treadmill desk (65.1%), P < .001. Females were more likely than males to be interested in using a bicycle desk, and @entity1 aged 18 to 44 years were more likely than those aged 45 to 65 years to be interested in using a treadmill desk. CONCLUSIONS: Results suggest that diverse @entity1 populations may have interest in using @entity1652 . Promoting use of @entity1652 in primary care practices could help meet national standards for providing comprehensive, @entity1 -centered care.
