简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of online exercise training in geriatric population whose daily life activity level decreased during COVID-19 pandemic.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does online exercise training improve quality of life in the geriatric population whose daily life activity levels have decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic?
- Does online exercise training improve sleep quality in the geriatric population whose daily life activity levels have decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic?
- Does online exercise training affect depression status in the geriatric population whose daily life activity levels have decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic?
- Does online exercise training reduce the risk of falls by improving balance and functional independence in geriatric population whose daily life activity levels have decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic?
- Does online exercise training improve posture in geriatric population whose daily life activity levels have decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Research data were collected by Sociodemographic Information Form, 36-Item Short Form Survey, The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Geriatric Depression Scale, Timed Up & Go Test, and New York Posture Rating Chart.
While no application was given to the control group, study group has received an online exercise training with a structured exercise program including range of motion, stretching, and, to train full body, low intensity aerobic exercises, once a week for 10 weeks, each lasting 60 minutes.

结局指标
主要结局
mobility
时间窗: This outcome was evaluated twice, before starting the exercise program and after completing the exercise program.
To determine fall risk and measure the progress of balance, sit to stand and walking, Timed-Up and Go Test was used. This is a simple screening test that is a sensitive and specific measure of probability for falls among older adults. An older adult who takes ≥12 seconds to complete the test is at risk for falling. The results of the Timed-Up and Go Test were obtained in seconds. This primary outcome was evaluated by interpreting these results.
