Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of elastic band resistance training in the balance ability training of inpatients in Geriatric Department.Methods:From January to December 2019, 70 inpatients in the Geriatrics Department of a ClassⅡ general hospital in Beijing were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 35 cases in each group. Control group used routine exercise health education and supervised patients to complete the activity. On the basis of control group, observation group carried out balance training according to the elastic band resistance training method. Before and after the intervention, the differences in the grip strength, Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) , single-legged standing with eyes closed, and Timed up and Go (TUG) test of patients were compared between the two groups.Results:After 12 weeks of intervention, patients of observation group had grip strength (27.371±8.769) kg, total SPPB score (8.657±1.259) , time of single-legged standing with eyes close (5.151±1.551) s, and TUG test (14.031±3.666) s, higher than those of control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.148, 5.505, 31.128, 2.269; P<0.05) . Conclusions:Elastic band resistance training can improve the limb strength and balance ability of elderly hospitalized patients, which can be further promoted.
