Filter by:This is a randomized controlled trial that is designed to study the effectiveness of home-based exercise program and high dietary protein counselling in preventing frailty among elderly in Singapore primary care setting.
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a 12-week home-based telerehabilitation programme on improving subjective well-being among community-dwelling older people with frailty. The main question it aims to answer is - Could home-based psychoeducation significantly enhance subjective well-being in older adults with frailty in the community? Participants will receive 12 weekly online group-based sessions at their homes. The content for the experimental group and control group is different: - Intervention group: psychoeducation - Control group: physical health education Participants will receive three home visits for data collection. Some of participants in experimental group will receive interview for process evaluation.
The goal of this observational study is to leverage childhood cancer survivor input to adapt video content of a digital video disc-(DVD) delivered evidence-based PA intervention, originally designed for community-dwelling older adults. Primary Objective: - To leverage childhood cancer survivor input to adapt video content for an evidence-based remote exercise intervention.
The aim of this study was to determine the independent association of frailty with cardiopulmonary resuscitation and predictive factors in patients triggering code blue response
Physical exercise is an effective strategy to maintain functional ability and improve debilitating symptoms in the elderly.In addition to functional enhancement, exercise is considered a cornerstone for enhancing cognitive function in debilitated older adults with cognitive impairment and dementia.The investigators evaluated the effect of the Vivifrail exercise intervention on the degree of debilitation in elderly hospitalized patients after venous hemolysis in acute ischemic stroke
The overall objective of this study is to investigate the effect of attention control training on reach-grasp stabilizing responses during fall-induced perturbations. The central hypothesis is that training attention control during reach to grasp balance perturbations will lead to increased grasp accuracies and reduced in-task falls. This research will mark the first explore the effects of training attention control on protective arm responses and fall rate during a balance perturbation paradigm and the first feasibility testing of a fully integrated cognitive and physical rehabilitation paradigm, moving beyond correlative designs and parallel treatments. The overall public health significance of the proposed research is that with improved protective arm responses and grasp accuracies, a larger randomized control study may be designed to mitigate falls among community dwelling older adults. Participants will be involved in 6 sessions. Session 1 will include the assessment, questionnaires, and training. Session 2 will include just the training. Session 3 will include the assessment and training. Sessions 4-5 will include just the training. Session 6 will include the assessment, questionnaires, and training.
Two-centre complex intervention development and feasibility trial using mixed qualitative and quantitative approach
The aim of the research - to evaluate the impact of interactive physical therapy tools for functional capacity, fear of falls, motivation and quality of life after open heart surgery due to ischemic heart disease and frailty in the second stage of rehabilitation.
This randomised control clinical trial aims to investigate the effects of exercise training and diet on physical and functional fitness and immunological and metabolic changes in adults with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Investigators will randomise participants to either 12 weeks of supervised/semi-supervised exercise only, exercise + nutritional guidance, or no exercise.
Does home-based training work in kidney transplant recipients with reduced physical function? The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if home-based training works to better physical function in adult kidney transplant recipients. It will also learn about participants preoperative physical function. The main question it aim to answer is - Does home-based training improves physical function in kidney transplant recipients. - All the participants are assessed to have reduced physical function before the transplantation Participants will: - follow either a home-based training program or todays standard of physical activity after kidney transplantation - the program starts 4 weeks after the transplantation and lasts for 12 weeks. A physiotherapist will help the participants in the beginning. - the program consists of both cardio-training, strength-straining and optional activity - the training group will be followed up every week by phone. Their activity will be documented via patients logs and heart rate monitor. - the effect of the training will be evaluated one year after the transplantation
