Effect of Tai Chi on Functional Fitness of Elderly Patients With Degenerative Arthritis

Exercise Training Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Tai Chi on Functional Fitness of Elderly Patients With Degenerative Arthritis

Clinical Trial Summary

Degenerative arthritis is a common disease in the elderly , in recent years, there are young trends, the symptoms often cause great pain in the elderly, associated with lower physical exercise caused by decreased muscle mass, functional fitness performance Is also poor, affecting the ability of elderly people to live independently. Therefore, this study mainly explores whether the intervention of tai chi can improve the functional fitness of the elderly and reduce the pain index of the elderly. The study was designed to take the sample, which was divided into experimental group and control group. It was expected to receive 100 people. The subjects were asked to use the basic information, Karnofsky scale, The functional fitness test, the exercise conscious scale and the WOMAC pain scale were used as the research tools. The SPSS system was used to analyze whether the functional fitness index and the pain index were significantly different before and after exercise intervention. Whether the exercise intervention has an effect on the elderly.
