Do not stand there!
Since 1956 the original research of the London transport system investigates the difference in cardiac events between bus drivers and conductors on the bus, we saw the importance of the activity and at the expense of sedentary behavior. In this study, the drivers of the bus 2 level had less cardiac events and fared better after having a cardiac episode that most sedentary bus driver. Drivers collected reversing funds and climbed the bus at 2 levels throughout the day while sitting right drivers.
More recently, sedentary behavior in our society proved to be dangerous. An article in 2015 Annals of Internal Medicine showed that the amount of time a person is sitting during the day is associated with a higher risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer and death, regardless of regular exercise. This study has highlighted the reality that it is not enough to exercise for 30-45 minutes every day and be sedentary for 23 hours more a day. A similar study on The Journal of the American Heart Association found a 13 percent risk of death higher for each additional 2 hours per day of TV time watching.
Many of our high-tech jobs require sitting at a computer, however, there was an increase of finding improved alternatives, including permanent offices and offices attached to treadmills. Whatever the status of your patient encouraging them to stand up and take short walks frequently during the day to avoid the deleterious effects of the session. An article in 2014 Medicine Science Sports and Exercise found that 5-minute walk every hour session helps reverse the damaging effects of the session. Another study showed walking 2 minutes every half hour could be more effective in reducing the risk of diabetes as taking a brisk 30 minute walk each day. I encourage my patients to get up every 25-30 minutes for a short walk ... intend to do the same for your patient.
