Uvod: Telesna krhkost (TK) je klinično stanje starejših odraslih in se kaže kot pojav najmanj treh izmed petih značilnosti TK (nenamerna izguba telesne mase, utrujenost, šibkost, zmanjšana hitrost hoje in sedeč način življenja). Telesna dejavnost je ena izmed metod za preprečevanje in zmanjševanje stopnje TK. Plesno-gibalna vadba (PGV) je oblika telesne dejavnosti, ki se je izkazala za priljubljeno med populacijo starejših odraslih. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je bil prikazati učinke skupinskega plesa na telesno pripravljenost, spoznavne sposobnosti in TK stanovalcev DSO. Metode dela: Diplomsko delo je prospektivna intervencijska raziskava, kjer smo raziskovali učinke skupinskega plesa pri TK stanovalcih doma starejših občanov. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 10 TK preiskovancev. Pri preiskovancih smo opazovali TK, telesno pripravljenost in spoznavne sposobnosti. Podatke smo pridobili s fenotipom krhkosti, slovensko različico Senior fitness testa in kratkim testom spoznavnih sposobnosti. PGV smo izvajali dvakrat tedensko, osem tednov, kar skupaj znaša 16 vadbenih enot, po 45 min na vadbeno enoto. Meritve smo izvedli trikrat, pred začetkom PGV, po šestih tednih izvajanja PGV in po dvanajstih tednih od začetka raziskave. Rezultati: Pri meritvah TK je prišlo do statistično značilnega zmanjšanja prevalence med prvim in zadnjim testiranjem (P = 0,006). Statistično značilno sta se pri fenotipu krhkosti spremenili telesna dejavnost (P = 0,007) in hitrost hoje (P = 0,050). Drugi kriteriji fenotipa krhkosti se v opazovanem obdobju niso statistično značilno spremenili. Telesna pripravljenost se je statistično značilno spremenila pri časovno merjenem testu vstani in pojdi (P = 0,002), dosegu sede na stolu (P = 0,014) in dotiku dlani za hrbtom (P = 0,001). Ostale komponente testiranja telesne pripravljenosti starejših odraslih so ostale statistično nespremenjene. Pri opazovanju spoznavnih sposobnosti ni prišlo do statistično značilnih sprememb. Razprava in zaključek: Ugotovili smo, da obstajajo statistično značilne razlike v TK in pri nekaterih komponentah telesne pripravljenosti po izvajanju PGV. Ni pa prišlo do statistično pomembnih sprememb spoznavnih sposobnosti po izvajanju PGV. V prihodnje bi bilo treba primerjati učinke različnih vrst vadb na TK.

• Title: Effects of group dance in frail residents in the nursing home : diploma work

Abstract

Introduction: Physical frailty is clinical state in which at least three of five criteria are present (unintentional weight loss, self-reported exhaustion, weakness, slow walking speed and low physical activity. Physical activity is one of methods for preventing and reducing frailty. Dance/movement exercise si a form of physical activity and is proven to be popular among the older adults population. Purpose: The aim of this diploma work was to show effects of dance/movement exercise on physical frialty, physical performance and cognitive function among frail residents of senior citizens home. Methods: This diploma work is a prospective interventional study. We investigated the effects of group dance on fragile residents of senior citizens home Šiška in Ljubljana. 10 frail residents participated in the research. We observed physical frailty physical fitness and cognitive abilities, with the Frailty phenotype, the Slovenian version of the Senior fitness test and the Short test of cognitive function. The research consisted of 16 training sessions of dance/movement exercise, twice a week, for eight weeks, 45 minutes per session. The measurements were performed three times, before the start of dance/movement exercise, after six weeks of exercise and after twelve weeks from the start of the research. Results: There were statistically significant differences in physical frailty prevalence between first and last measurment (P = 0,006). Looking from frailty phenotype, only physical activity (P = 0,007) and walking speed (P = 0,050) changed statistically important. Other criteria of the Frailty phenotype did not change statistically significantly during the observed period. Physical fitness changed statistically significantly in the timed up and go test (P = 0.002), the chair sit and reach test (P = 0.014) and the back scratch test (P = 0.001). Other components of the Senior fitness test remained statistically unchanged. There were no statistically significant changes in the cognitive abilities. Discussion and conclusion: We found that there is a statistically significant difference in physical frailty and in some components of physical fitness after performing dance movement exercise. However, there were no statistically significant changes in cognitive abilities after the implementation of dance movement exercise. In the future, it would be necessary to compare the effects of different types of exercise on BP.
