Yoga Empowers Seniors Study (YESS)
2016年11月14日 更新者:George Salem、University of Southern California
Safe and Effective Yoga Prescription of Seniors: Biomechanical Considerations
This is an Intervention Development Study (IDS) to quantify the physical demands (using biomechanical investigation) of a 2-phase (beginning & intermediate), 32-week yoga program designed for community-dwelling older adults.
Additionally, the IDS will explore the adherence and adverse events of participation in the program.
Data from the IDS will be used to develop evidenced-based yoga programs, which the investigators postulate will be associated with fewer musculoskeletal side effects compared to non-evidence based yoga programs.
The investigators also postulate that evidenced-based tailoring of yoga for seniors will enhance adherence and efficacy.
The programs developed during this IDS will be tested in an expanded, Phase II, Randomized Controlled Trial.
研究概览
详细说明
Yoga is currently being recommended to restore and preserve strength, flexibility, balance, & physical capacity in older adults; however, our clinical trial experiences suggest that without proper evidenced-based prescription, Yoga participation can be ineffective or even injurious for seniors.
To address this lack of evidence-based knowledge, the proposed IDS will: 1) quantify the physical demands of a 32-wk Yoga program designed for independent ambulatory seniors; 2) characterize the relations between these demands and participant physical characteristics; 3) examine the adherence, efficacy, & safety of the program; and 4) characterize the relations among reported adverse events, baseline participant characteristics, and Yoga physical demands.
