Abstract Background In nursing home residents, the combination of decreasing mobility and declining cognitive abilities, including spatial orientation, often leads to reduced physical activity (PA) life-space (LS) mobility. As a consequence sedentary behavior, there is lack social interaction stimulation, resulting in low quality life. It has not yet been examined whether cognitive-motor training tasks suitable improve orientation and, as consequence, enlarge LS mobility, increase well-being...
We aimed to compare the potential acute effects of single bouts a classic prevention and risk factor-focus training aiming target modifiable anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture factors impact neuromuscular fatigue on relevant ACL factors.Two preventive warm-up (standard factor training) one inactive arm were compared; each these followed by standardized protocol. The assessments included two Trail making tests (TMT-A; TMT-B, time complete), drop jump landings (knee separation distance,...
Abstract A sedentary lifestyle in nursing home residents is often accompanied with reduced life space mobility and turn affects satisfaction life. One of the reasons for this may be limited ability to find one’s way around care facility its environment. However, spatial orientation exercises might reduce these problems if they are integrated into an adequate cognitive-motor training. Therefore, we six novel target group-specific established multicomponent group training evaluated...
Multicomponent training is recommended for people with dementia living in long-term care homes. Nevertheless, evidence limited and severe are often excluded from trials. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate (1) feasibility (2) requirements regarding multicomponent moderate dementia. The conducted as an uncontrolled single arm pilot a mixed methods approach. Fifteen nursing home residents mean age 82 years (range: 75-90 years; female: 64%) received 16 weeks training. Feasibility...
