Abstract:
Objective:To observe the rehabilitation effect of Baduanjin combined with elastic band training on elderly patients with sarcopenia. Methods:From January 2019 to January 2021, 120 elderly sarcopenia patients in our hospital who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups according to the random number table method, with 60 in each group. The control group was given conventional treatment intervention for sarcopenia, and the observation group was Baduanjin exercises combined with elastic band training on the basis of the control group. Both groups were intervened for 12 weeks. The skeletal muscle index (SMI), muscle grip strength, short physical performance battery (SPPB) and Modified Barthel Index (MBI) were used to compare between two groups before and after the intervention. Results:After treatment, the SMI index [(6.77 ± 1.03) kg/m 2vs. (6.35 ± 1.12) kg/m 2, t=2.14], muscle grip strength [(23.06 ± 3.48) kg vs. (19.41 ± 3.79) kg, t=5.50], SPPB score [(9.12 ± 2.24) vs. (7.85 ± 2.13), t=3.18] and MBI score [(82.43 ± 20.75) vs. (64.36 ± 19.42), t=4.93] of the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). After treatment, the distribution of muscle activity function in the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group ( Z=-2.28, P=0.023). Conclusion:Baduanjin combined with elastic band training can improve the muscle function and quality of daily activities in elderly patients with sarcopenia.
