A feasibility study for implementation 'Health Arcade': a study protocol for prototype of multidomain intervention based on gamification technologies in acutely hospitalized older patients
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The aim of this article is to present the research protocol for a study that will evaluate the feasibility of implementation of Health Arcade prototype multidomain intervention based on physical and cognitive training using ...
Lipidomic signatures from physically frail and robust older adults at hospital admission
(Springer, 2022)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Identifying serum biomarkers that can predict physical frailty in older adults would have tremendous clinical value for primary care, as this condition is inherently related to poor quality of life and premature mortality. ...
Relative handgrip strength diminishes the negative effects of excess adiposity on dependence in older adults: a moderation analysis
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The adverse effects of fat mass on functional dependence might be attenuated or worsened, depending on the level of muscular strength. The aim of this study was to determine (i) the detrimental effect of excess adiposity ...
Functional and cognitive impairment prevention through early physical activity for geriatric hospitalized patients: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(BioMed Central, 2015)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Frail older adults have reduced functional and physiological reserves, rendering them more vulnerable
to the effects of hospitalization, which frequently results in failure to recover from the pre-hospitalization ...
Effect of exercise intervention on functional decline in very elderly patients during acute hospitalization: a randomized clinical trial
(American Medical Association, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Importance: Functional decline is prevalent among acutely hospitalized older patients. Exercise and early rehabilitation protocols applied during acute hospitalization can prevent functional and cognitive decline in older ...
Assessing the impact of physical exercise on cognitive function in older medical patients during acute hospitalization: secondary analysis of a randomized trial
(PLoS, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Acute illness requiring hospitalization frequently is a sentinel event leading to long-term disability in older people. Prolonged bed rest increases the risk of developing cognitive impairment and dementia in ...
Effect of a multicomponent exercise programme (VIVIFRAIL) on functional capacity in frail community elders with cognitive decline: study protocol for a randomized multicentre control trial
(BioMed Central, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: The benefit of physical exercise in ageing and particularly in frailty has been the aim of recent research. Moreover, physical activity in the elderly is associated with a decreased risk of mortality, of common ...
Inter-individual variability in response to exercise intervention or usual care in hospitalized older adults
(Wiley, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Exercise protocols applied during hospitalization can prevent functional and cognitive decline in older adults. The purpose of this study was to examine the individual response of acutely hospitalized patients ...
Effects of Vivifrail multicomponent intervention on functional capacity: a multicentre, randomized controlled trial
(Wiley Open Access, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Background: physical exercise is an effective strategy for preserving functional capacity and improving the symptoms of frailty in older adults. In addition to functional gains, exercise is considered to be a cornerstone ...
Normative values for the short physical performance battery (SPPB) and their association with anthropometric variables in older Colombian adults. The SABE Study, 2015
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: The short physical performance battery (SPPB) is a physical performance test of lower extremity function designed for non-disabled older adults. We aimed to establish reference values for community-dwelling ...
