简要总结
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of interactive exergaming combined with Otago Exercise Program on mobility among community-dwelling older adults aged 65 and above. The main research questions are:
Does this combined exercise intervention improve elderly mobility? Does this program enhance muscle strength and psychological well-being?
Researchers will compare two groups: one group will do the combined exercise program for 12 weeks, while the other group will continue their usual activities.
Participants will:
- Have their health checked three times: at the start, after 12 weeks, and 3 months later
- If in the exercise group, attend exercise sessions twice a week for 12 weeks
- Complete tests about their physical abilities and how they feel emotionally
Who can take part:
- Adults age 65 or older
- People who need more than 12 seconds to stand up and sit down 5 times
- People who can stand for at least 30 seconds with support
People cannot take part if they have serious vision problems, recent leg injuries, major illnesses, significant memory problems, or mental health conditions.
详细描述
This cluster-randomized controlled trial investigates the integration of interactive exergaming with the evidence-based Otago Exercise Program (OEP) to enhance mobility among community-dwelling older adults. The study employs comprehensive methodology and rigorous assessment protocols to evaluate intervention effectiveness.
Methodology and Technical Implementation:
Assessment Tools and Measurements:
Primary Outcome Measures:
ICOPE (Integrated Care for Older People) screening tool evaluating six domains: cognition, mobility, nutrition, vision, hearing, and depression
