简要总结
A lack of studies has applied elastic band resistance training exercises on hospitalized elderly, so the effect of elastic band resistance training exercises on physical fitness and risk of falls was unclear. Therefore, the purposes of this study were to investigate the effectiveness of elastic band resistance training on improving physical fitness and reducing the risk of falls in hospitalized elderly with high risk of falls. This study is an experimental study. The experimental group was given 3 times a week for 2 consecutive weeks of elastic band resistance training, while the control group was given regular rehabilitation exercises. The differences in physical fitness and fall risk between the two groups were examined.

Tw-FROP-Com
时间窗: one week
Taiwan version of Falls Risk for Older People Community setting (Tw-FROP-Com) to evaluate risk factors associated with falls.in old adults. Falls in the old adults may not only cause physical and psychological harm, but also lead to death in severe cases, and may also increase medical costs. Taiwan introduced and fine-tuned the FROP-com scale designed by Russell et al. into the Taiwan version of the Fukang scale (TW-FROP-Com) to assess the risk of falls. The assessment contents include: fall experience, medication, medical conditions, whether Visual, somatosensory impairment, presence of foot or shoe problems, cognitive status, bladder control, nutritional status in the past three months and weight loss in the past year, environment, functional movements, activities of daily living (ADL) condition), walking balance, gait and activity; if the total score is more than 21 points, it is assessed as a high-risk group for falls.
Functional Fitness Test
时间窗: completed through training, usually two weeks
Physical fitness is considered to be the comprehensive ability of the body to adapt to life and the environment; people with good physical fitness have good vitality and adaptability in daily life or work, physical activities or sports, and are not prone to fatigue or weakness; Ministry of Health and Welfare National Health Administration refers to the United States Scholars have designed functional fitness tests for the elderly over 60 years old, and developed domestic fitness tests to assess physical health. Topics include muscle strength and endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, flexibility, agility, and homeostasis. Scholars in Taiwan conducted a reliability and validity study of the Taiwan version of the Fukang Scale for the elderly in a community in Taipei City, including 400 elderly people in the community, including 142 who had fallen experience. The degree of reliability is 0.97, and the between-group reliability is 0.996.
