Abstract

is a process of slowly losing the tissue's ability to maintain normal function and causing changes in muscle structure and function. A decrease in strength and muscle mass is a problem that often found in the elderly. Exercise is one of the factors that affect strength and muscle mass. The objective of the research is to compare the strength and muscle mass in elderly women who act and not actively exercise. This study is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design analyzed by an independent T-test. The research subjects were taken by purposive sampling, 20 elderly women aged over 60 years who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were assessed for sports activity, muscle strength, and muscle mass so that it is obtained a sample of 13 elderly who are actively exercising and 7 elderly who are not actively exercising. Handheld muscle strength research data was measured using a handgrip dynamometer, muscle mass was measured using the Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) method, and exercise habits were taken from the modification of the Baecke Physical Activity questionnaire. The results show that the elderly who were active in exercising with a mean score of muscle strength (10.59 ± 3.62) and muscle mass (34.22 ± 4.62) were higher than those who did not exercise (6.51 ± 3.42) and (29.81 ± 3.39) with p-values of 0.020 and 0.0125. There is a difference between strength and muscle mass in elderly women who are active and not actively exercising.

Abstract

Elderly people are a group of people with age of 60 and above. Studies in United States showed one-third of elderly people experienced fall in their houses and one-forty of them need bedrest in hospital. Falling can cause physical and mental injury. Physical injury manifests as fracture, hematoma, bruises, and dislocation, and mental injury manifests as lack of self esteem. This study aimed to examine the relation between age and gender on risk of fall on elderly people. This is a cross-sectional analytical study involving 23 elderly people from Tulus Kasih Elderly Home that met the inclusion criteria. Risk of fall were checked with Timed Up and Go Test. The data acquired were analyzed with chi-square with α = 0,05. As results, age significantly affected risk of fall (p=0.019) but gender did not (p=0.265). We concluded the risk of falling is increased with age and unaffected by gender.Keywords : age, gender, risk of fall, timed up and go test
