Development of foot function scale and educational program for foot care to prevent falls in regional elderly population

我们创建了一个足部护理计划，以提高自我护理技能，预防区域老年人的福尔斯跌倒。该方案包括实施加强脚的安全脚趾锻炼和提供关于脚的信息。以干预开始为基线，我们每三个月测量一次与足部相关的肌肉力量和平衡，直到九个月。结果，可以继续护理的那一组在肌肉力量和平衡方面都有所改善。此外，增加对足部的关注可能会对持续护理产生影响，这表明有必要进行量身定制的干预以增加这种关注。此外，脚趾强度作为足部功能的指标是重要的，并且需要更简单的调查来提高证据水平。

We created a foot care program to improve self-care skills for the purpose of preventing falls in regional elderly people. The program consists of the implementation of safe toe exercise that strengthens the foot and the provision of information on the feet. Setting the start of intervention as the baseline, we measured the foot-related muscle strength and balance every three months until nine months. As a result, the group in which care could be continued showed improvement in both the muscle strength and balance. In addition, increased attention to the feet may have had an impact on continuous care, suggesting the necessity of tailored intervention to increase such attention. Additionally, the toe strength is important as an indicator of the foot function, and simpler investigations will be necessary to increase the evidence level.
