短期暴露于改变的感觉输入或不稳定的平台运动可显著改善摇摆控制和抑制不适当的运动反应,从而改善重复测试期间的平衡。此外,最近有证据表明,参加力量训练计划的活跃和虚弱的老年人的力量和功能都可以增加。因此,要测试的假设是:(1)单独的平衡训练,或(2)单独的力量训练都能够显着改善平衡,步态和功能移动性,以及(3)平衡和力量训练的组合计划将比单独的任何一种方法更有效。将使用2 × 2设计(每组30例受试者)在至少75岁的社区居住老年人中相对于对照组对这些假设进行检验。至少45分钟的干预课程将每周进行三次,持续3个月,并进行6个月的随访,以家庭为基础的太极训练。主要结果变量是功能平衡的基本测量,即,在支撑物倾斜和/或视觉环境移动期间平衡丧失的发生。
Short‐term exposure to altered sensory input or destabilizing platform movement results in significant improvement in sway control and inhibition of inappropriate motor responses, resulting in improved balance during repetitive testing. In addition, there is recent evidence that strength and function can be increased in both active and frail elderly who participate in strength training programs. Therefore, the hypotheses to be tested are that (1) balance training alone, or (2) strength training alone will each be capable of significantly improving balance, gait, and functional mobility, and that (3) a combined program of balance and strength training will be more effective than either approach alone. These hypotheses will be tested relative to a control group, using a 2 times 2 design (30 subjects per group), in a community‐dwelling elderly at least 75 years of age. Intervention sessions of at least 45 minutes will occur three times per week for 3 months, with 6 months of follow‐up, home‐based Tai Chi training. The primary outcome variable is a basic measure of functional balance, ie, the occurrence of loss of balance during tilts of the support and/or movement of the visual surround.
