Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to analyze the published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the effects of exercise interventions on functioning and health-related quality of life following hospital discharge for recovery from critical illness. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs. DATA SOURCES We searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PEDro data base, and SciELO (from the earliest date available to January 2023) for RCTs that evaluated the effects of physical rehabilitation interventions following hospital discharge for recovery from critical illness. REVIEW METHODS Study quality was evaluated using the PEDro Scale. Mean differences (MDs), standard MDs (SMD), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS Fourteen studies met the study criteria, including 1259 patients. Exercise interventions improved aerobic capacity SMD 0.2 (95% CI: 0.03-0.3, I2 = 0% N = 880, nine studies, high-quality evidence), and physical component score of health-related quality of life MD 3.3 (95% CI: 1.0-5.6, I2 = 57%, six studies N = 669, moderate-quality evidence). In addition, a significant reduction in depression was observed MD -1.4 (95% CI: -2.7 to -0.1, I2 = 0% N = 148, three studies, moderate-quality evidence). No serious adverse events were reported. CONCLUSION Exercise intervention was associated with improvement of aerobic capacity, depression, and physical component score of health-related quality of life after hospital discharge for survivors of critical illness.

Front Hum Neurosci 2024; 17:1331395. [PMID: 38249574 PMCID: PMC10796510 DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2023.1331395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, hundreds of individuals commence wheelchair use daily, often due to an injury such as spinal cord injury or through a condition such as a stroke. However, manual wheelchair users typically experience reductions in individual community mobility and participation. In this review, articles from 2017 to 2023 were reviewed to identify means of measuring community mobility and participation of manual wheelchair users, factors that can impact these aspects, and current rehabilitation techniques for improving them. The selected articles document current best practices utilizing self-surveys, in-clinic assessments, and remote tracking through GPS and accelerometer data, which rehabilitation specialists can apply to track their patients' community mobility and participation accurately. Furthermore, rehabilitation methods such as wheelchair training programs, brain-computer interface triggered functional electric stimulation therapy, and community-based rehabilitation programs show potential to improve the community mobility and participation of manual wheelchair users. Recommendations were made to highlight potential avenues for future research.

Geriatr Gerontol Int 2023; 23:842-848. [PMID: 37818711 DOI: 10.1111/ggi.14694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/12/2023]
Abstract
AIM The present study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis to evaluate the methods and effects of interventions to increase life-space mobility among community-dwelling older adults. METHODS Records were identified through nine databases. Eligible study designs for inclusion in the review were randomized controlled trials of interventions on life-space mobility for community-dwelling older adults. The risk of bias was assessed using the Risk of Bias 2 tool. We followed the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach to summarize the evidence. RESULTS Four studies (558 participants) identified via search strategies were included. Two studies involved individualized exercise and lifestyle interventions. In three out of the four studies, individual interventions were applied. Overall, when compared with a control group, the intervention group was more likely to positively affect increasing life-space mobility (standardized mean difference 0.47, 95% confidence interval [0.020 to 0.92]). The heterogeneity statistic indicated considerable heterogeneity (I2 = 84%). The evidence was downgraded one step owing to imprecision. CONCLUSIONS Interventions on increasing life-space mobility for community-dwelling older adults have a positive effect. Combination interventions may be more effective than single interventions, and individual interventions may be more effective than group interventions. However, owing to the limited number of studies, conducting further research to enhance the generalizability of results is crucial. Additionally, subgroup analysis should be conducted to clarify differences in intervention methods and effects. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2023; 23: 842-848.

Factors associated with life-space mobility restriction in home-care older adults receiving home-visit rehabilitation: A cross-sectional multi-center study in Japan. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2023; 23:722-728. [PMID: 37678841 DOI: 10.1111/ggi.14657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
AIM Life-space mobility (LSM) restriction is a serious issue among older adults using home-visit rehabilitation (HR). This study evaluated physical function, transportation, and other factors not comprehensively tested in previous studies and examined factors associated with the restriction of LSM among older adults using HR. METHODS This cross-sectional multi-center study recruited 88 HR users (49 men, 39 women, mean age 79.0 [±7.8] years) living in urban and rural areas from August to October 2020. We administered the Life-Space Assessment (LSA), the Self-Efficacy Scale on Going out among community-dwelling Elderly (SEGE), grip strength, a 30-s chair stand test, Bedside Mobility Scale, Functional Independence Measure, Frenchay Activities Index (FAI), Ikigai-9, and Home and Community Environment (HACE) test. Participants were divided into two groups based on the cut-off value of the LSA scores. In the logistic regression analysis, the dependent variable was LSA scores ≤30, and the independent variables were measured based on objective evaluation items and adjusted for confounding factors (age, sex, and frequency of use of day-care services). RESULTS Restriction of LSM was significantly associated with FAI (odds ratio [OR] = 0.817, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.706-0.945), HACE facilitators (OR = 1.558, 95% CI = 1.168-2.079), and living alone (OR = 12.822, 95% CI = 1.202-136.716). CONCLUSION Restriction of LSM is associated with environmental factors, such as assistive devices and household composition, and ability to engage in instrumental activities of daily living. Our findings indicate a great need for focusing on these factors among home-care older adults receiving HR. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2023; 23: 722-728.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to derive a screening tool for predicting the risk of falls in community-dwelling older adults with knee osteoarthritis. This prospective cohort study was conducted in four orthopedic clinics. The main outcome measure was falls or nonfalls for 5 months, and the predictors were sex, age, BMI, Kellgren-Lawrence grade, laterality, number of comorbidities, pharmacotherapy, physical therapy period, use of a cane, household, previous history of falls, visual analog scale for pain, one-leg standing test (OLST), five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST), and Frenchay activities index. Ninety outpatients (74 females and 16 males) with a mean (SD) age of 73.1 (9.3) years completed a 5-month follow-up. According to the binomial logistic regression analysis, previous history of falls [odds ratio (OR), 6.85; P = 0.019], OLST (OR, 5.97; P = 0.048), and FTSST (OR, 12.93; P = 0.034) were identified as risk factors for falls, and the clinical prediction rule was derived from these variables. The pretest probability of fallers in this study was 21.1% (19 of 90 participants). When the total screening tool score was three points (the participant scored one point for each item: previous history of falls, yes; OLST, ≤6.84 s; FTSST, ≥8.77 s), the positive likelihood ratio was 16:19, and the posttest probability increased to 81.3%. Therefore, this simple screening tool possesses potential clinical utility for identifying patients with knee osteoarthritis at high risk of falls in the future because it demonstrated sufficient diagnostic test accuracy.
