All subjects were ambulatory women, 80 to 93 years old, who lived in assisted-care facilities. Eight exercise and 7 control subjects completed the 5-month study. Exercise subjects participated 3 times weekly in progressive resistance of the lower extremities and upper extremities. ADLs were assessed by the Barthel Index, and functional stability was assessed by timed measures of rising from a chair, walking, and standing, feet together, with eyes open and eyes closed. All subjects were tested at 0, 10, and 20 weeks. Using repeated measures analysis of variance, significant differences were seen only in an overall Group effect (p

This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family caregiving affects millions of Americans every day, in all walks of life. At least 17.7 million individuals in the United States are caregivers of an older adult with a health or functional limitation. The nation's family caregivers provide the lion's share of long-term care for our older adult population. They are also central to older adults' access to and receipt of health care and community-based social services. Yet the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the least appreciated challenges facing the aging U.S. population. Families Caring for an Aging America examines the prevalence and nature of family caregiving of older adults and the available evidence on the effectiveness of programs, supports, and other interventions designed to support family caregivers. This report also assesses and recommends policies to address the needs of family caregivers and to minimize the barriers that they encounter in trying to meet the needs of older adults.

This book was released on with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present findings summarized in the paper do not consider walking as a mere part of usual physical activity of an individual. Walking is understood as a significant tool that contributes to decreasing the impacts of contemporary negative trends in the society including their combinations (prevalence of lifestyle diseases, level of physical activity, sedentary behaviour and others). In the publication the authors emphasize the comprehensive nature of addressing walking. The authors further present the outcomes of their research study supported by the Czech Science Foundation. The core of the study was to assess the influence of a specific walking model based on active transport to/from work. The study is based on the specifics of Czech cities and towns and corresponds with the environmental behaviour model. In the Czech Republic the effect of walking to/from work has been addressed for the first time.

Download or read book Frailty in the Elderly written by Sara Palermo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progressive growth in the number of older adults worldwide has led to a modification of the current healthcare scenario and a parallel increase in the use of public resources. In this book, we propose a conceptual framework within which aging, frailty, and care are analyzed through the lens of complexity medicine. Therefore, we present a multidimensional perspective that takes into account biomedical, (neuro)psychological, and socio-ecological vulnerability. The theses presented are the result of an inductive approach, based on many years of experience in the field, which has made it possible to identify strategies for frailty recognition and effective responses even in complicated clinical settings. The book is intended to be a tool of concrete and easy consultation, rich in reflections and suggestions.
