Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of low-resistance elastic band resistance training on elderly patients with pre-frailty.Methods:This was a prospective research. A total of 119 elderly patients with pre-frailty admitted to the Geriatric Hospital of Medical Health Group of First People′s Hospital of Xiangshan County from August 2020 to May 2021 were selected as the research objects by simple sampling method, and divided into the control group of 60 cases and the intervention group of 59 cases according to the time of admission, and the control group received routine nursing methods, the intervention group used low-resistance elastic bands for resistance training intervention on the basis of the control group. The intervention time was 12 weeks. Frail Asthenia Screening Scale, Motor Function Evaluation Scale for the Elderly and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale were used to evaluate the asthenia, motor function and sleep quality of the two groups before and after the intervention, and statistical comparison was made.Results:There was no significant difference in the asthenia, motor function and sleep quality between the two groups before the intervention ( P>0.05). The asthenia score after the intervention in the intervention group was (0.83 ± 0.38) points, which was lower than that in the control group (1.05 ± 0.43) points, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.93, P<0.01). The total score of motor function, social activity, mobility difficulty, daily care and physical pain after the intervention in the intervention group were (49.36 ± 4.68), (21.85 ± 3.71), (10.31 ± 1.65), (9.93 ± 1.80), (7.27 ± 1.65) points, respectively, which were lower than those in the control group (53.67 ± 5.20), (23.45 ± 3.62), (11.10 ± 1.81), (11.00 ± 1.88), (8.12 ± 1.65) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.38 - 4.75, all P<0.05). The total score of sleep quality and the scores of sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorder, hypnotic drug use and daytime functional disorder after the intervention in the intervention group were (6.54 ± 1.79), (1.02 ± 0.75) (0.95 ± 0.63), (0.95 ± 0.65), (0.80 ± 0.41), (1.29 ± 0.62), (0.53 ± 0.50), (1.02 ± 0.75) points, respectively, which were lower than those in the control group (8.92 ± 1.44), (1.38 ± 0.74), (1.40 ± 0.56), (1.37 ± 0.55), (0.93 ± 0.31), (1.58 ± 0.53), (0.72 ± 0.45), (1.53 ± 0.79) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.06 - 7.97, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of low-resistance elastic band resistance training in elderly patients with pre-frailty can reduce the patient′s frail status, improve motor function and sleep quality, and has a certain clinical value.
