对于老年人来说,定期锻炼可以带来许多健康益处,包括改善血压、冠状动脉疾病、糖尿病、血脂、骨关节炎、骨质疏松症、情绪、神经认知功能以及总体发病率和死亡率。本文讨论了老年人运动的好处以及医生如何帮助此类患者克服运动障碍(例如久坐的生活方式、缺乏教育、共存疾病),并为健康和受损的老年患者提供了一些实用的运动处方。
In older adults, regular exercise provides numerous health benefits that include improvements in blood pressure, coronary artery disease, diabetes, lipid profile, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, mood, neurocognitive function, and overall morbidity and mortality. This article discusses the benefits of exercise in the elderly and how physicians can help such patients overcome barriers to exercise (eg, sedentary lifestyle, lack of education, coexisting morbidities), and offers some practical exercise prescriptions for both healthy and compromised elderly patients.
