This study evaluated the influence of a Pilates exercise program on the quality of life (QOL) of sedentary elderly women. Twenty-four elderly women (aged 64.8 ± 3 years) participated in this study. Participants were divided into two groups: a Pilates Group (PG) and a Control Group (CG). The women in the PG performed 30-min sessions of Pilates (on the ground and using appliances) twice a week over six months. To evaluate the QOL, the SF-36 survey was used. The PG achieved significant improvements in 7 out of 8 domains in the survey: functional capacity (p = 0.00), physical aspects (p = 0.03), pain (p = 0.00), general health condition (p = 0.04), vitality (p = 0.02), social aspects (p = 0.03) and mental health (p = 0.05). Our results showed that implementation of a Pilates program can improve QOL of sedentary elderly women.
本研究评估了普拉提锻炼计划对久坐不动的老年女性生活质量(QOL)的影响。24名老年女性(年龄64.8±3岁)参与了本研究。参与者被分为两组:普拉提组(PG)和对照组(CG)。普拉提组的女性每周进行两次30分钟的普拉提训练(在地面上并使用器械),持续六个月。为了评估生活质量,使用了SF - 36调查问卷。普拉提组在调查问卷的8个领域中的7个领域取得了显著改善:功能能力(p = 0.00)、身体方面(p = 0.03)、疼痛(p = 0.00)、总体健康状况(p = 0.04)、活力(p = //0.02)、社会方面(p = 0.03)和心理健康(p = 0.05)。我们的结果表明,实施普拉提计划可以改善久坐不动的老年女性的生活质量。
