Detaljerad beskrivning
Aim 1: To measure the amount of sedentary time and ambulation (steps) in older adults residing in independent living communities.
Aim 2: To test the acceptability and effectiveness of a 12-week sedentary behavior intervention to decrease sitting and increase ambulation which will in turn improve physical function (primary outcome) as well as sleep, quality of life, energy/mood, pain and blood pressure (secondary outcomes) in independent living residents.
Background: Sedentary behavior, or sitting for prolonged periods during waking time, is identified as a health risk that is distinct from the failure to achieve sufficient physical activity. Older adults exhibit the greatest time in sedentary behavior which is concerning given its association with chronic disease and poorer physical function. Preliminary data suggest that individuals in long term care facilities may have even greater sedentary time due to personal factors and environment influences. Most often, exercise is targeted as a mechanism for ameliorating frailty in older adults; however, reduction in sedentary time may be a more appealing and realistic goal for improving health outcomes. Despite this, studies targeting sedentary time in older adults, particularly in those in independent living facilities, are lacking.

Change in Sedentary Behavior
Tidsram: Baseline to 12 weeks
|
Objectively measured minutes of sitting during waking hours measured using the ActivPAL physical activity monitor for a minimum of 5 days pre and post-intervention.
The ActivPAL is a thigh-mounted, compact device that classifies an individual's free-living activity into time spent in sedentary, standing, and walking behaviors.

Baseline to 12 weeks

Steps per Day
Tidsram: Baseline to 12 weeks
|
The number of steps per day measured using the ActivPAL activity monitor.
This monitor is worn for a minimum of 5 days before and after the intervention.

Baseline to 12 weeks

Short Physical Performance Battery
Tidsram: Baseline to 12 weeks
|
This performance-based measure of physical function is a battery of measures to assess standing balance, gait speed and lower extremity strength (time to complete five chair rises)
|
Baseline to 12 weeks

Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Physical Function Short Form 10a
Tidsram: Baseline to 12 weeks
|
This self-report measure of physical function has 10 questions that assess the ability to perform various activities that require physical capability.
