Physical Activity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Physical and Cognitive Exercises in Nursing Homes: Is Frailty Reversible?
Elderly in residential care spend 97% of their time sedentary. Moreover, exercise therapy
often takes place in a poorly stimulating environment which is less motivational for the
elderly to undertake regularly. Exercise is however necessary to preserve their physical
capabilities and to limit their care dependence.
The aim of this study is to investigate the most motivating and stimulating exercise modality
for prefrail and frail elderly in nursing homes with which they can reach sufficient training
volume.
To study this, elderly will exercise in 3 different ways on an ergometer or motomed
(according to their physical capabilities): 1) in an environment without other visual stimuli
2) in front of a television with National Geographic images 3) with the interactive software
program MemoRide with which participants can exercise in real life on a virtual manner.
MemoRide (Activ84Health) uses Google Street View images. The starting point is a connection
between an exercise bike and a tablet with a pedalling sensor. This way, pedal frequency is
sent to the tablet and as a result, images continue when pedalling.
The forth modality is the control modality, in which participants are instructed to rest
(supine) during 30 minutes.
Based on objective training parameters and metabolic parameters e.g. glucose, insulin,
brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and lactate, (via a blood sample with a venous
catheter) the training modality which offers the best training results will be studied.
Secondly, also subject experiences (motivation and emotions) will be evaluated by using
questionnaires and observation scales.
