Abstract

Since the onset of coronavirus 2019, there has been an upsurge of tele-exercise delivery. Previous studies showed old adults find tele-exercise feasible and acceptable. However, there is limited understanding of the oldest-old’s experiences. This study used the interpretative phenomenological approach. Two semi-structured interviews and home visits were conducted with six oldest-old women, aged between 81 and 91 years, who participated in tele-exercise classes. Four superordinate themes were identified: ambivalent perception of safety, ease in regular participation, reminded and guided to move the aged body, and technological adaptation. Our findings indicate that tele-exercise has the potential to assist the oldest-old living in the community in maintaining an adequate activity levels at home, which they perceive as the safest place. Emerging themes provide insights into their lived experiences, enabling service providers to enhance tele-exercise services for this group in the tele-health era.
家中的活力:对 80 岁及以上妇女进行远程锻炼的现象学研究
自 2019 年冠状病毒疫情爆发以来,远程锻炼的普及率急剧上升。以往的研究表明,老年人认为远程锻炼是可行和可接受的。然而,人们对高龄老人的体验了解有限。本研究采用了解释现象学方法。研究人员对参加远程锻炼课程的六位年龄在 81 至 91 岁之间的高龄妇女进行了两次半结构化访谈和家访。我们确定了四个上位主题:对安全的矛盾感知、定期参与的便利性、提醒和指导老年人活动身体以及技术适应。我们的研究结果表明,远程锻炼有可能帮助居住在社区的高龄老人在家中保持足够的活动量,因为他们认为家中是最安全的地方。新出现的主题提供了对他们生活经历的见解,使服务提供者能够在远程保健时代加强对这一群体的远程锻炼服务。
