Abstract

Objective

The present study aimed to understand the effectiveness of natural setting interventions to increase the level of PA in older adults (≥ 40 years old) with intellectual disabilities.

Method

Following PRISMA's most recent guidelines, a systematic review was used to synthesise research on PA interventions implemented in a natural setting to increase PA in older adults with intellectual disabilities.

Results

Eight articles were retained based on inclusion and exclusion criteria: four group and four single-case designs. Most studies showed positive but small changes in PA levels. Due to the heterogeneity of the interventions tested, the samples and PA outcomes measured as well as the quality and risk of bias of the studies, results could not be generalised.

Conclusion

The systematic review highlights the pressing need for better quality research to understand if and how natural setting interventions can effectively increase PA levels in older adults with intellectual disabilities.

自然环境干预提高老年智障患者身体活动水平的系统综述。

目的：本研究旨在了解自然环境干预提高老年人（≥40岁）智力障碍患者PA水平的有效性。方法：根据PRISMA最新的指南，系统回顾了在自然环境中实施的PA干预措施，以增加老年智障患者的PA。结果：根据纳入和排除标准保留了8篇文章：4组和4单例设计。大多数研究显示PA水平呈阳性但变化很小。由于测试的干预措施、测量的样本和PA结果以及研究的质量和偏倚风险的异质性，结果不能一概推广。结论：该系统综述强调了迫切需要进行高质量的研究，以了解自然环境干预是否以及如何有效地提高老年智力障碍患者的PA水平。
