Fall Risk Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of a HAPA-based Multicomponent Fall Intervention on Older Adults With Declines in Intrinsic Capacity in Nursing Homes
Falls are a common geriatric syndrome that impedes healthy aging and are the primary cause of accidental death in older adults. Globally, more than 50% of older adults experience falls in nursing homes each year. Intrinsic capacity (IC) is a quantifiable measure of healthy aging, and consists of five dimensions: cognitive, locomotor, vitality, sensory (vision and hearing), and psychological capacity. Decline in IC is an independent factor in the occurrence of falls in older adults. A related theoretical framework indicates that healthy behaviors are the key to enhance IC. The health action process approach (HAPA) has been shown to have positive effects on health behavior promotion. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of multidimensional fall management based on HAPA on fall risk, fall efficacy, and healthy aging among older adults with declines in IC in Chinese nursing homes.
Method： First, a randomly selected nursing home in Huzhou, will be selected for the study using the WHO Intrinsic Ability Screening Scale for older adults with declines in IC. A baseline assessment will be conducted followed by clustered randomization to divide into an intervention group (n=60) and a control group (n=60). All subjects will be intervened, after signing the informed consent. The subjects will be assessed by blinded evaluators for primary and secondary outcomes at study entry (T0), 4 weeks for the intention intervention (T1), 12 weeks for the action intervention (T2), and 8 weeks for the following up (T3). Finally, data collection and statistical processing will be carried out. Expected results: Reduce the incidence of falls and falls risk among the nursing home residents of the intervention group. Increase of extremity physical functional ability (balance, gait speed, and grip strength) of the intervention group. Improvement of IG among the intervention group. Improvement of healthy aging among the intervention group. ;
