Objective: The study aimed to explore the short and long-term effects of the Vivifrail-B multicomponent exercise based on society ecosystems theory on physical function in community-dwelling frail older adults.
Methods: 59 older adults were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 29) groups. The exercise was performed thrice a week for 12 weeks, with one offline group training and two at home training.
Article Synopsis
- - The study reviewed the impact of multicomponent exercise on frailty and physical function in older adults (60+ years) diagnosed with frailty, utilizing a systematic review and meta-analysis approach.
- - Analysis included 28 randomized controlled trials with nearly 5,000 participants, revealing that multicomponent exercise significantly improved frailty status and various physical functions, such as muscle strength and gait speed.
- - Findings suggest that a 12-week multicomponent exercise program is most effective, highlighting its potential benefits for older adults in enhancing their physical abilities and overall frailty status.
