Elderly Clinical Trial - Effect of the Virtual Reality Training in Elderly

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The study aims to investigate the efficacy of group-based exercises using virtual reality on activities of daily living in elderly population.

Clinical Trial Description

As a result of morphological and functional changes that occur with aging, complications such as decrease in muscle mass, flexibility and muscle strength, decrease in sleep quality, social isolation and chronic diseases develop and cause a decrease in independence in activities of daily living (ADL). Increasing physical activity in the elderly is effective in maintaining general health status and maintaining independence during activities of daily living (ADL). However, the level of the participation to physical activities is quite low in old age. It's known that group-based exercises and technology-supported exercise training with virtual reality games increase participation in physical activity and improve motor functions and ADL. But, there is no study examining the effect of technology-supported group exercises on ADLs in the elderly. Therefore, the aim of our study is to find out the effects of technology-supported group exercises on ADLs in the elderly over 65 years of age. The forty-two participants will be recruited and divided into three equal groups randomly. The group 1(n=14) will perform group-based virtual reality training and group 2(n=14) will receive individual virtual reality training for 45-minutes, twice a week for eight weeks. The third group group 3(n=14) will determined as the control group and they will continue their routine daily activities. Primary outcome measure will be Barthel Index of Activities of Daily Living. Secondary outcome measures will be Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE), Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, Single Leg Stance Test (SLST), Six Minute Walk Test, Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (Paces). ;
