Improving Mobility in Diabetic Patients Through Resistance Training
Impaired mobility is a major health problem affecting many subjects with diabetes mellitus. It is associated with loss of quality of life and it is a strong predictor for poor health outcomes. Reduced lower extremity muscle function, as a consequence of diabetic polyneuropathy, is a major cause of impaired mobility. We hypothesize that a programme of resistance training will counterbalance the effects of polyneuropathy on muscle wasting, and will improve mobility and associated quality of life.
The objective of this study is to develop a resistance training intervention that improves mobility and quality of life in diabetic patients. It is also our intension to achieve a better understanding of the relation between diabetic neuropathy and muscle weakness, limited mobility and quality of life. Moreover, insight will be gained in optimizing training programmes for neuropathic patients.

Eksperimentel: resistance training
During 24 weeks, the patients of the intervention group will participate in a resistance training program. Two subsequent intervention programmes will be offered. Initially the first 12 week resistance trainings stage will aimed at improving function of lower leg muscles; subsequently a more extended programme affecting total limb musculature (lower- and upper leg) will be provided (also 12 weeks). During these trainings period, patients will train 3 times a week; once a plenary training session of 1,5 hour provided by a physical therapist. And 2 trainings sessions of half an hour each, by them selves at home. |
