A 3-month integrated exercise intervention improves diagnostic parameters of sarcopenia in ambulatory community-dwelling older adults with Dementia: A two-group pre-test/post-test design
This quasi-experimental study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 3-month exercise intervention program on diagnostic parameters of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults with dementia. Eighty participants were recruited: the intervention group (n = 40) engaged in integrated exercise sessions three times per week; the control group (n = 40) received usual care. Pre-test, only the physical performance parameter differed between groups, which was better for the intervention group (p < .05). Compared with controls, the intervention group had significantly better post-test parameters of muscle strength, and physical performance; fewer participants were categorized as having sarcopenia (p = .012). However, sarcopenia distribution pre-test vs. post-test within the intervention group was not significant. These findings suggest that a 3-month exercise intervention can effectively improve diagnostic parameters of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults with dementia. This intervention positively affected diagnostic parameters of sarcopenia however further modifications will be required to reduce sarcopenia.
期刊介绍:
Geriatric Nursing is a comprehensive source for clinical information and management advice relating to the care of older adults. The journal''s peer-reviewed articles report the latest developments in the management of acute and chronic disorders and provide practical advice on care of older adults across the long term continuum. Geriatric Nursing addresses current issues related to drugs, advance directives, staff development and management, legal issues, client and caregiver education, infection control, and other topics. The journal is written specifically for nurses and nurse practitioners who work with older adults in any care setting.
