Sarcopenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Department of Physical Therapy, Tzu Chi University
This study evaluates the effects of exercise intervention on muscle strength and walking speed for the community-dwelling elderly. Half of the participants will receive exercise training, while the other half will maintain their usual activities of daily living.
Physical inactivity can result in physical frailty and sarcopenia. Physical frailty and
sarcopenia are two common and mostly overlapping geriatric conditions, which may cause
negative consequences of aging, such as disability, hospitalization and mortality.
Regular physical activity has been suggested to maintain or improve functional capacity and
body composition, as well as delay aging process. Nevertheless, inactivity prevalence still
significantly increases among older adults, especially those with a disability. One of the
probable reasons is that the use of physical activities or exercise interventions is not
tailored to the needs and capabilities of the elderly.
