Study Overview
Brief Summary
Assessment of the effect of a 12 weeks serious game based exercises program on physical performance in older adults living in nursing homes, in comparison with a control group that benefits from a classical exercise training program including balance, muscle strengthening and walking exercises with the same duration.
Detailed Description
Recent reviews of the literature have shown that exergames may have interest in balance rehabilitation, physical performance maintenance, and fall prevention in community dwelling older adults with neurodegenerative disease or at risk of fall. These reviews also show however that classical exergames are not adapted for rehabilitation of patients with functional limitations, which could explain their relatively moderate benefits in those patients.
To overcome this lack, a serious game has been co-developed with medical to be adapted to the specific needs and characteristics of nursing home residents In this study , the investigators propose to compare the effects on physical performance, falls incidence, and quality of life of a 12-weeks serious game based exercise program and a classical exercises program

Arms & Interventions
serious game
the effect on physical performance of a personalized, 12-weeks rehabilitation program using a serious game
Intervention: serious game (Other)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Short Physical Performance Baterry (SPPB)
Time Frame: 3 months
Short Physical Performance Baterry (SPPB) at baseline (T0) and at 3 months.The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) is the sum of the scores on three criteria: the balance test, the walking speed test and the chair lift test. This test makes it possible to evaluate the physical performance of an individual.
Secondary Outcomes
- Balance(3 months)
- Short Physical Performance Baterry (SPPB)(6 months)
- Cognition(3 months)
- Satisfaction evaluation(3 months)
