To characterize patterns of sedentary behavior and physical activity in older adults recovering from hip fracture and to determine characteristics associated with activity.
Community-dwelling, Canadian adults (65 years+) who sustained hip fracture wore an accelerometer at the waist for seven days and provided information on quality of life, falls self-efficacy, cognitive functioning, and mobility.
There were 53 older adults (mean age [SD] 79.5 [7.8] years) enrolled in the study; 49 had valid data and demonstrated high levels of sedentary time (median [p10, p90] 591.3 [482.2, 707.2] minutes/day), low levels of light activity (186.6 [72.6, 293.7]), and MVPA (2 [0.1, 27.6]), as well as few daily steps (2467.7 [617.1, 6820.4]). Regression analyses showed that age, gender, gait speed, and time since fracture were associated with outcomes.
Older adults have long periods of sedentary time with minimal activity. Results are a call to action to encourage people to sit less and move more.
描述髋部骨折康复期老年人的久坐行为和身体活动模式,并确定与活动相关的特征。
居住在社区的65岁及以上加拿大成年人,髋部骨折后在腰部佩戴加速度计7天,并提供有关生活质量、跌倒自我效能、认知功能和活动能力的信息。
53名老年人(平均年龄[标准差]79.5[7.8]岁)参与了该研究;49人有有效数据,显示久坐时间长(中位数[p10,p90]591.3[482.2,707.2]分钟/天)、轻度活动水平低(186.6[72.6,293.7])、中度至剧烈身体活动(MVPA)水平低(2[0.1,27.6]),以及每日步数少(2467.7[617.1,6820.4])。回归分析表明,年龄、性别、步速和骨折后的时间与结果相关。
老年人久坐时间长,活动极少。研究结果呼吁采取行动,鼓励人们少坐多动。
