Abstract

Falls in the geriatric population are one of the most important causes of disabilities in this age group. Its consequences impose a great deal of economic burden on health and insurance systems. This study was conducted by a multidisciplinary team with the aim of evaluating the effect of visuo-spatial-motor training for the prevention of falls in older adults. The subjects consisted of 31 volunteers aged 60 to 92 years who were studied in three groups: (1) A group under standard physical training, (2) a group under visuo-spatial-motor interventions, and (3) a control group (without any intervention). The results of the study showed that visual-spatial motor exercises significantly reduced the risk of falls of the subjects.

摘要

老年人跌倒问题是导致该年龄段残疾的最重要原因之一。其后果给医疗和保险系统带来了巨大的经济负担。这项研究由一个多学科团队开展，旨在评估视觉空间运动训练对预防老年人跌倒的效果。研究对象包括31名年龄在60至92岁之间的志愿者，他们被分为三组进行研究：（1）接受标准体育训练的组；（2）接受视觉空间运动干预的组；（3）对照组（不进行任何干预）。研究结果表明，视觉空间运动练习显著降低了研究对象跌倒的风险。
