Modified Otago Exercise Program on Balance Performance

Healthy Aging Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effectiveness of Modified Otago Exercise Program on Balance Performance of Elderlies in Hong Kong

Clinical Trial Summary

Fall is a common problem encountered by elderlies. In Hong Kong, the prevalence rate of falls among elderlies aged above 65 years old ranged from 18%-29%, standing at approximately one-fifths of the total elderly population. Falls pose huge threats to the physical and psychosocial health of the elderlies as they are often accompanied by serious injuries such as bone fracture and post-fall syndrome, decreased confidence in walking, and social exclusion. Otago Exercise Program (OEP) was a tailor-made home-based fall prevention program of community-dwelling elderlies. It comprises of 3 main components: 5 lower limb strengthening, 12 balance retraining and walking exercises. Regarding on its effectiveness, multiple studies revealed that OEP and modified version of OEP (mOEP) brought significant improvements on perceived, static and dynamic balance, lower limb strength, quality of life and functional capacity of healthy elderlies and those with various health conditions such as chronic illnesses, osteoarthritis, stroke and hemiplegia. The delivery method of OEP and mOEP has been limited to have elderlies following the instructions and illustrations of a printed booklet. Currently, there are only two proposed effective forms of mOEP: video-instructed and Exergames. Our study attempts to establish a new home-based exercise option incorporating mOEP with video, music and lyrics. It helps to increase the exercise motivation of elderlies, hence their physical performance.
