简要总结
Preclinical mobility limitations (PCML) manifest early in the process of declining mobility, and are not typically identified or acted upon by clinicians. These mobility limitations manifest as changes in how daily tasks such as walking are performed (slower speed, lower endurance). Persons in the PCML stage are at increased risk for the onset of disability and chronic disease. Persistent deterioration in mobility is a predictor of mortality and has been reported even in the absence of changes in activities of daily living over a two-year period. Further, older persons with mobility limitations, including reduced gait speed, are at risk for falls. These cumulative transitions of a person's life-long mobility form their mobility trajectory and preventing mobility decline at an early stage along this trajectory is the focus of this research initiative. This study will evaluate a novel intervention, STEPPING-UP, for improving walking ability in persons with PCML.

入选标准
- •Community-dwelling
- •Age ≥55-75 years
- •PCML as assessed using a questionnaire that requires respondents to self-report difficulties with their mobility (walking 2.0km). Respondents will be considered in a stage of PCML if they report no task difficulty but report modification of task performance (i.e. modify frequency, method or time to complete the task)
- •Understanding of spoken and written English
- •Own a laptop computer, have an email address and have internet capabilities of running the video-conferencing platform, Zoom©.
- •Resident of Ontario, Canada
排除标准
- •A score of <11 on the MoCA 5-Minute telephone screen
- •Major illness that would prevent participation
研究组 & 干预措施
Stepping-Up Group
Participants will attend one 2-hour virtual session (1-hour exercise and 1-hour SM) per week. Each class of 6-8 participants is supervised by a Physiotherapist (PT) and kinesiologist who will individually tailor the exercises for each participant.
干预措施: Stepping-Up (Other)
TELE Group
The initial telephone session will be 20-30 minutes, with subsequent weekly calls will be approximately 10 minutes.
干预措施: Telephone-Based Coaching Walking Program (Other)
Chair-Based Yoga Group
Participants will attend two 1-hour virtual sessions per week to ensure this group is matched for attention to STEPPING-UP.
干预措施: Chair-Based Yoga Program (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in walking speed from baseline
时间窗: 12 weeks
The 4-Metre Gait Speed Test (4MGS) is a performance-based measure of walking speed. The 4MGS test will be performed from a standing start at both a self-selected (usual) and fastest walking speed.
