Abstract

Objectives: Increasing Frailty syndrome is one consequence of the aging population. Frailty syndrome can adversely affect the independent life and social activities of the elderly by threatening their balance and mobility. This study aimed to investigate the effect of short-term postural-balance training on balance and functional limitations in elderly women with Frailty syndrome. Methods & Materials: The present clinical trial study was performed on 54 elderly women with Frailty syndrome. Participants were randomly selected from one of the daycare centers for the elderly in Shiraz and were divided into two groups intervention (n=27) and control (n=27). For the intervention group, 12 sessions of short-term postural-balance Exercises were held. Data were collected using the Fried Frailty Index, berg balance scale (BBS-9), and the survey of activities and fear of Falling in the elderly (SAFE) Questionnaire at the beginning of the study and the end of the intervention and analyzed using SPSS software v. 25. Results: The mean age of participants was 66. 77 years, and 94. 4% had at least one chronic disease. Following the intervention, there was a significant improvement in the mean scores of frailties such as physical activity, walk time, balance, and motor limitation of the elderly in the intervention group. In contrast, the intervention could not significantly affect other frailty indicators, i. e., unwanted weight loss, exhaustion, and grip strength in the intervention group Conclusion: Postural-balance Exercises significantly improve the physical characteristics of malnutrition and motor and functional limitations in daily life activities in the elderly.
