摘要
Obesity is a health condition that, through a complex interaction of biopsychosocial and environmental factors, is associated with mobility disability. The mobility disability experienced by persons with obesity is associated with reduced health related quality of life (HRQoL) compared to persons without obesity. this paper will review and discuss functional mobility and its relationship to HRQoL for persons living with obesity. This will be done by conducting a review of the literature in the area of obesity and functional mobility and it's association with HRQoL. Recommendations to address the known factors that contribute to mobility disability and reduced quality of life are outlined while suggestions for research to contribute to best practice to enable mobility for persons with obesity are made.
