Winter activity program to prevent long term care for elderly in snowy regions

在这项研究中，我们评估了冬季老年人的身心健康状况，此前我们在秋季观察了他们，找出了问题并制定了可能的长期护理预防计划。为老年人评估的参数包括平均活动量、年龄、认知功能、护理预防评估、白天平均室温和BMI。体重指数和每天走的步数来衡量的体力活动之间有显著的相关性。在冬季，左腿的力量显著下降。秋季的平均步数明显高于冬季。这意味着，需要一个计划来维持多雪冬季地区的活动量，保持腿部功能和认知功能的维持。

In this study we evaluated physical and mental conditions of the elderly in winter, after previously looking at them in autumn, identifying issues and devising a possible long term care prevent program. Parameters evaluated for the elderly included were the average amount of activity, age, cognitive function, care prevention evaluation, average room temperature during the day, and BMI. There was a significant correlation between BMI and physical activity as measured by the number of steps taken per day. Power in the left leg decreased significantly during winter. The average number of steps in autumn was significantly higher than winter. There are implications that a program is needed to maintain the amount of activity in snowy winter regions, to retain leg function and the maintenance of cognitive function.
