[PMID: 38613370 DOI: 10.1080/09638288.2024.2340703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Our aim was to investigate the test-retest reliability of the 2-min walk test (2MWT), timed up and go test (TUG), and five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST) in prostate cancer (PC) patients. METHODS This study was conducted with 73 patients who were classified into two groups as frail and non-frail determined by the Geriatric-8 questionnaire. Patients performed the 2MWT, TUG, and FTSST tests for two times. The test-retest reliability of the 2MWT, TUG, and FTSST was assessed by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The standard error of measurement (SEM95) and minimal detectable change (MDC95) values were calculated. RESULTS All tests showed excellent test-retest reliability for both groups (ICC(2.1) > 0.90). The SEM95 and MDC95 values of 2MWT were 3.09, 8.57, and 3.15 m, 8.73 m for frail and non-frail groups. The SEM95 and MDC95 values of TUG for the frail group were 0.6 and 1.66 and 0.43 and 1.19 for the non-frail group, respectively. The SEM95 and MDC95 values of FTST for the frail group were 0.68 and 1.88 and for the non-frail group 0.86 and 2.38. CONCLUSIONS The 2MWT, TUG, and FTSST showed excellent reliability in frail and non-frail older adults with PC which can be used to assess physical performance.

Detraining and Retraining Effects from a Multicomponent Training Program on the Functional Capacity and Health Profile of Physically Active Prehypertensive Older Women. Healthcare (Basel) 2024; 12:271. [PMID: 38275551 PMCID: PMC10815818 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare12020271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuming a physical exercise program after a period of cessation is common in older women. Monitoring the responses during this detraining (DT) and retraining (RT) may allow us to analyze how the body reacts to an increase and a reduction in physical inactivity. Therefore, we conducted a follow-up training, DT, and RT in prehypertensive older women to analyze the response to these periods. METHODS Twenty-three prehypertensive older women (EG; 68.3 ± 2.8 years; 1.61 ± 0.44 m) performed 36 weeks of the multicomponent training program (MTP) followed by twelve weeks of DT plus eight weeks of RT. Fifteen prehypertensive older women (CG; 66.3 ± 3.2 years; 1.59 ± 0.37 m) maintained their normal routine. Functional capacity (FC), lipid, and hemodynamic profile were assessed before, during 24 and 36 weeks of the MTP, after 4 and 12 weeks of DT, and after 8 weeks of RT. RESULTS After 24 weeks of the MTP, only SBP did not improve. Four weeks of DT did not affect lower body strength (30-CS), TC, or GL. Eight weeks of RT improved BP (SBP: -2.52%; ES: 0.36; p < 0.00; DBP: -1.45%; ES: 0.44; p < 0.02), handgrip strength (3.77%; ES: 0.51; p < 0.00), and 30-CS (3.17%; ES: 0.38; p < 0.04) compared with 36 weeks of the MTP. CONCLUSIONS Eight weeks of RT allowed patients to recover the benefits lost with detraining, which after only four weeks affected them negatively, and the systematic practice of exercise contributed to greater regulation of BP since 24 weeks of the MTP proved not to be enough to promote positive effects of SBP.

Genç FZ, Bilgili N. The effect of Otago exercises on fear of falling, balance, empowerment and functional mobility in the older people: Randomized controlled trial. Int J Nurs Pract 2023; 29:e13194. [PMID: 37620151 DOI: 10.1111/ijn.13194] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 07/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to test the effect of Otago exercises on fear of falling, balance, empowerment and functional mobility in older people living in nursing homes. METHODS This study is a parallel-group randomized controlled trial. In total, 56 individuals were stratified randomized according to age-gender. Participants were recruited from September 2021 to August 2022. Data were collected at baseline, in the 8th and 12th weeks. The researcher gave Otago exercise training to the intervention group three times per week for the first 4 weeks and applied it to the individuals, and in the next 8 weeks, the researcher visited the institution to ensure the continuity of the exercises and contacted the individuals by phone. Friedman test and generalized linear model were used in the analysis of data. RESULTS In the study, group and time interaction were found to be significant in terms of the Berg balance scale, 30-second sit-and-stand test, elderly empowerment scale and timed up-and-go test. It was determined that the intervention did not improve fear of falling, upper extremity strength and 6-min walk test results. CONCLUSION Health personnel and administrators should have increased awareness about Otago exercises and can recommend implementation of the programme.

Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2023; 114:105083. [PMID: 37390692 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2023.105083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 07/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a well-recognized risk factor for adverse health-related outcomes in aging population. However, little is known about the dynamic changing nature of frailty and the potential for it to be modified within the scope of exercise. Currently, there has not been a systematic review of the impact of Otago exercise program (OEP) implementation specifically for the frail or pre-frail older adults. OBJECTIVE To determine the effectiveness of Otago exercise program on the degree of frailty, physical balance ability, mobility, grip strength and health-related quality of life in older adults with frailty or pre-frailty. METHODS We conducted literature searching in seven electronic databases, as well as hand-search of reference of included studies from inception to December 2022. Eligible studies included clinical trials of pre-frail or frail elderly receiving OEP interventions reporting on the relevant outcomes. The effect size was evaluated using standardized mean differences (SMDs) and its 95% confidence interval with random effects models. Risk of bias was appraised independently by two authors. RESULTS 10 trials containing 8 RCTs and 2 non-RCTs studies were included. Five studies were evaluated with some concerns in the evidence quality. The results showed that the OEP intervention could possibly reduce the level of frailty (SMD=-1.14, 95% CI: -1.68∼-0.06, P < 0.01) and improve the mobility (SMD=-2.15, 95% CI: -3.35∼-0.94, P < 0.01) and physical balance ability (SMD=2.59, 95% CI: 1.07-4.11), P = 0.01), and enhance their grip strength (SMD=1.68, 95% CI=0.05∼3.31, P = 0.04). However, no statistically significant effect of OEP on quality of life (SMD=-1.517, 95% CI=-3.18∼0.15, P = 0.07) in frail elderly was found based on the current evidence. The subgroup analysis indicated that participant age, different intervention total duration and per min of each session have varying degrees of impact on frail or pre-frail older people. CONCLUSIONS The OEP intervention targeting older adults with frailty or pre-frailty are effective in reducing frailty, improving physical balance ability, mobility, and grip strength with low to moderate certainty. More rigorous and tailored research are still needed in the future to further enrich the evidence in these fields.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the effects of a group-based Otago exercise program (OEP) on physical function (mobility, balance, lower limb strength), frailty and health status in older nursing home residents to determine the optimal scheme and format. METHODS This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to estimate group-based OEP effects. Subgroup analysis was performed to identify the influences of the participant and intervention characteristics on the effects. RESULTS Twelve studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in this meta-analysis, and the overall quality was relatively high. The results showed that the group-based OEP significantly improved physical function, including mobility [SMD=-0.64, 95% CI (-0.83,-0.45), Z=6.55, p<0.001], balance [MD=4.72, 95% CI (3.54, 5.90), Z=7.84, p<0.001], lower limb strength [SMD=-1.09, 95% CI (-1.40, -0.79), Z=7.01, p<0.001]; frailty [SMD=-0.73, 95% CI (-1.01, -0.45), Z=5.13, p<0.001] and health status [SMD=0.47, 95% CI (0.20, 0.74), Z=3.44, p=0.0006]. Subgroup analysis revealed that 30-minute sessions were more beneficial for improving balance than >30-minute sessions (p=0.0004). The training was coordinated with physiotherapists, who were more skilled at improving mobility than providing health training education (p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS Group-based OEP is helpful for improving physical function, frailty and health status in older nursing home residents. Specifically, 30-minute sessions and coordinating with physiotherapists may be the most appropriate and effective options.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To perform a systematic review with meta-analysis to verify the effects of multicomponent and resistance training on the physical performance in older adult residents in long-term care, as well as to compare these modalities. DESIGN Systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Older adults age over 60 years who are nursing home residents in long-term care. METHODS Seven electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Central, Web of Science, SportDiscus, LILACS, and SCIELO) were searched from their inception until May 1, 2022. The methodological quality was assessed using PEDro scale. Mean difference and 95% confidence interval were pooled using a random-effects model. The significance level established was P value of ≤.05 for all analyses. RESULTS A total of 30 studies were included in the qualitative review (n = 1887, mean age 82.68 years and 70% female). Multicomponent training appeared in 19 studies and resistance training in 12 studies. Out of these, 17 studies were incorporated into the meta-analysis. Multicomponent training and resistance training showed statistically significant difference (P ≤ .05) in the physical performance of institutionalized older adults compared with the control groups (usual care); this was evaluated with the Short Physical Performance Battery (+1.2 points; +2 points), 30-second chair-stand (approximately +3 repetitions; both), and Timed Up and Go (-4 seconds on mean; both) tests. Comparisons between multicomponent and resistance training did not show statistically significant differences in any of the physical outcomes evaluated. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The studies provide evidence that both multicomponent training and resistance training may be effective in improving the physical performance of institutionalized older adults. Further studies with more representative sample numbers, an improvement in methodological quality, and a more specified prescription of the training used are necessary.

Abstract
Older adults with dementia experience more frequent and injurious falls than their cognitively-intact peers; however, there are no evidence-based fall-prevention programs (EBFPP) for this population. The Otago Exercise Program (OEP) is an EBFPP for older adults that has not been well-studied in people with dementia. We sought to explore the feasibility of group delivery of OEP in an adult day health center (ADHC) for people with dementia. We collected demographic data, Functional Assessment Staging Tool (FAST), and Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) scores for seven participants with dementia. Pre- and post-test data included: Timed-Up-and-Go (TUG), 30-Second Chair-Stand (30s-CST), Four-Stage-Balance-Test (4-SBT), and Berg Balance Scale (BBS). We implemented a supervised group OEP, 3x/week × 8 weeks. Most participants required 1:1 supervision for optimal challenge and participation. Five participants completed the program. All had moderately severe to severe dementia based upon FAST; MMSE scores ranged from mild to severe cognitive impairment. Four of five participants crossed the threshold from higher to lower fall risk in at least one outcome (TUG, 30s-CST, 4-SBT, or BBS), and four of five participants improved by >Minimal Detectible Change (MDC90) score in at least one outcome. The group delivery format of OEP required significant staff oversight for optimal participation, making the program unsustainable.
