利用网络小组练习的健康促进活动对社区居住的老年心理抑郁症患者的即时影响

考虑到COVID-19导致的老年人缺乏身体活动，制定新的健康促进策略至关重要。本研究通过在线小组练习来进行健康促进活动，以检验其直接的心理影响。方法36名居住在社区的老年妇女进行在线小组练习，并通过Zoom进行现场直播。我们使用了第二版情绪状态概要(POMS 2)的简化版本来收集活动前后的身体、心理和认知功能数据。结果36例患者年龄75±7岁。他们完成了活动，没有中途退出。参与者活跃，认知功能高，但30%的人在活动前表现出抑郁倾向。活动结束后，POMS 2的结果显示抑郁倾向有显著改善。结论网络团体运动可以改善社区老年人的焦虑、压力、抑郁等负面心理感受。关键词:老年人视频-19在线锻炼抑郁症poms2致谢感谢白山市老年组对本文主要成果的获取和编辑编辑对稿件的认真校对。作者的贡献所有作者对以下所有方面都做出了重大贡献:(1)研究的构思和设计，或数据的获取，或数据的分析和解释，(2)起草文章或对重要的知识内容进行批判性修改，(3)最终批准提交的版本，(4)同意对工作的各个方面负责，确保与工作任何部分的准确性或完整性相关的问题得到适当的调查和解决。作者报告无利益竞争需要申报。其他信息资金作者报告没有与本文所述工作相关的资金。
