AIM
This study explored the prevalence of foot problems among older adults and the effectiveness of foot care interventions for improving toe-gap force and foot flexibility. Foot problems are very common among people aged 65 years and older. However, the effects of foot care interventions on components underlying these issues (i.e., toe-gap force and foot flexibility) are unclear.
DESIGN
This was a quasi-experimental study.
METHODS
Eighteen older adults were divided into three groups: medical foot care intervention, combined intervention and control group. The combined intervention group received medical foot care, foot hygiene and five-toed socks. Toe-gap force and foot flexibility were measured.
RESULTS
The most common foot problems were hallux valgus, toe deformities, nail discoloration and thickness and dryness. Significant differences in right foot toe-gap force were observed between the combined intervention and control groups. There were no significant differences in foot flexibility between groups.
目的
本研究探讨了老年人足部问题的患病率以及足部护理干预措施对改善趾间隙力和足部灵活性的效果。足部问题在65岁及以上人群中非常普遍。然而，足部护理干预措施对这些问题潜在因素（即趾间隙力和足部灵活性）的影响尚不清楚。
设计
这是一项准实验研究。
方法
18名老年人被分为三组：医学足部护理干预组、联合干预组和对照组。联合干预组接受医学足部护理、足部卫生指导和五趾袜。测量趾间隙力和足部灵活性。
结果
最常见的足部问题是拇外翻、脚趾畸形、指甲变色、增厚和干燥。联合干预组和对照组之间右脚趾间隙力存在显著差异。各组之间足部灵活性无显著差异。
