Physical activity interventions for older adults – an overview of systematic reviews
The proportion of people meeting recommended physical activity (PA) guidelines declines with age. Older adults who are physically inactive have an increased risk of: all-cause mortality; chronic diseases; injury and reduced cognitive functioning. Multiple systematic reviews aim to understand the effectiveness of PA interventions but the evidence is fragmented and it is unclear how well the research reflects the needs of older people. We conducted…
Evaluation of the Falls Management Exercise (FaME) programme implemented across three United Kingdom regions
The Falls Management Exercise (FaME) programme, delivered over 24 weeks, reduces falls in randomised controlled trials and ‘real world’ delivery, but some services deliver shorter, adapted FaME programmes. We investigated the ‘real-world’ effectiveness of FaME delivered for 12 or 24 weeks across three UK regions. Design: prospective cohort study. Participants: 1,601 FaME programme attendees (median age 79.5 years), of whom 873 had follow-up data …
Participation, autonomy and control are shared concepts within older people's interpretations of independence
To date, support for independence in older people has been largely focused on achieving practice- and policy-orientated goals such as maintenance of function, remaining in one's own home and reducing the impact of receiving care. Uncertainty about what independence means to older people means that these goals may not align with what matters and should be considered for a more person-centred approach to independence. This study aimed to improve un…
Key Considerations When Providing Physical Rehabilitation for People with Advanced Dementia
Dementia is a growing global challenge with numbers set to increase rapidly in the coming years. Evidence suggests that exercise can be effective in improving cognitive functioning, but the evidence does not yet support improvements in other key domains such as quality of life or physical ability. The aim of this study was to explore the key components that needed to be considered when providing physical rehabilitation to people with advanced dem…
OP87 Healthy Behaviours in Middle Age and Long-Term Consequences for Mortality, Physical and Cognitive Function, and Mental Health
Background Physical activity, healthy body weight, smoking, and alcohol consumption are each related to mortality, physical and cognitive function, and mental health but their combined long-term effect is unknown. We examined the individual and combined influence of these risk factors on mortality and subjective and measured function in middle-aged adults followed for 18 years. Methods Data were from the US Health and Retirement Study (HRS), a bi…
