Muscle Weakness Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Whole Body Vibration With Stochastic Resonance and Dance Therapy in the Elderly: Effects on Physical Functional Performance
This randomized controlled study aims to examine long term effects in the skilling up phase over 4 weeks on physical functional performance and strength of mechanical SR-WBV and dance therapy intervention in a frail elderly population.
This study is based on the guideline of falls management exercise programs (FaME; from
Skelton and Dinan).
The goals:
Skilling up: improvement in neuromuscular control, postural control and strengthening of
large muscle groups of the lower extremity.
Training Gain: improvement of functional abilities. Maintaining the Gains: muscle growth,
improvement of bone density and multi-sensory exercises.
First, a pilot study was conducted with untrained elderly ("Effects of stochastic resonance
therapy on postural control in the elderly population" (KEK Bern: No.228/09, Clinical Trial
Registry: NCT01045746). Following, a second pilot study was conducted with frail elderly
(Application of Whole-body Vibration With Stochastic Resonance in Frail Elderly: The Effects
on Postural Control Clinical Trial Registry:NCT01543243).
It was found that the selected chosen form of recruitment (presentation and advertisement)
and the measurements methods are suitable for untrained elderly. But for frail elderly the
chosen form of recruitment and the measurement methods are not sufficient.
For this study, measurement parameters for functional performance and strength will be used.
Goals of the study in the skilling up phase:
1. Feasibility
2. Study the effect on physical functional performance
3. Study the effects on muscle strength.
The participants will be recruited in Canton Bern - Swizerland and will be randomly allocated
to an intervention group or sham group.
