Home Based Exercise in Preventing Fall and Improving Balance in Older People
9. april 2015 opdateret af: Chitima Boongird, Mahidol University
Effectiveness of a Simple Designed Programme of Home Based Exercise in Preventing Fall and Improving Balance and Strength in Older People With Mild to Moderate Balance Dysfunction: A Randomized Controlled Trials
Prior studies have shown multifaceted falls prevention program with home-based exercise reduced falls significantly in the community setting.
The Otago exercise program has been tested in four separated controlled trials of community living people in New Zealand.
Falls were the main outcome in each trail and were defined as "unintentionally coming to rest on the ground, floor or other lower level".
Not only this combination strengthening and balance training exercise could reduce fall but also could benefit in cost-effectiveness for fall prevention and decrease mortality in those 80 and older.
However the limitation of Otago exercise program is that the program was needed to be trained by skill nurses or physical therapists.
There are 17 steps levels to adhere the program.
As some studies have shown that fall prevention program adherence could be as low as 10-40%.
In Thailand the lack of medical staffs are continued the problem in the community.
Therefore to establish fall prevention guideline that will be suitable and translated into the real setting, this study is aimed to test the effectiveness of simple program home-based exercise comparing to non-simple program home based exercise in preventing fall and improve muscle strength and balance dysfunction in older people with mild to moderate balance dysfunction.
The method is the randomized controlled trails.
