Old Age; Debility Clinical Trial

Official title:
Does Poor Muscle Quality in Older Women Affect Fall Concern and Lower Extremity Functionality?

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of muscle quality on fear of fall, and lower extremity functionality in older women. The differences between muscle quality, fear of falling and lower extremity functionality in the elderly male and female participating in the study were investigated. Older women had worse muscle quality, higher fall concern and less lower extremity functionality than older men.

Clinical Trial Description

The effects of muscle quality and lower extremity functionality, and fear of falling in older women are not well-known compared to older men in the same age group. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of muscle quality on lower extremity functionality and fear of falling in older women. 168 age-matched older adults participated in the study.
