Abstract

Abstract : Exercise, Older People, Cognitive Performance, MMSE. Cognitive performance in older people declines gradually due to aging process. It raises problems in functional daily activities, risks of injury, and dependency. Literatures have been revealed the benefits of exercise for health, not only physically, but also mentally. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of exercise on the cognitive performance of older people in Ngesrep Village, Boyolali District. This study was a quasi experimental one group pre test- post test with control group. A constitutive sampling method was applied to get subjects, and found 20 people for each experiment and control group. The instrument used was Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). Based on paired t-test analysis in the experiment group, it was found a significant difference on the cognitive performance pre and post exercise intervention (α = 0.05, t = 2.492, p = 0.022, r = 0.657). In the control group, there was no diferrence in pre and post test (p = 0.053). Based on independent t-test analysis between experiment and control group, it was found a significant difference before the intervention (p = 0.031), but after the intervention, there was no difference between the two groups. It was due to the increasing MMSE’s score on the experiment group, whereas the score of control group was relatively the same. Physical exercise had a significant influence on the cognitive performance of older people in this study, so it should be held in Ngesrep Village’s Posyandu routinely.

Abstract

Background: One in five Indonesian elderly was frail. Multicomponent exercise is one of the recommended strategies for frailty management in the elderly. However, it would be difficult for the elders to practice the exercise without proper exercise guidelines. In this study, a Multicomponent Exercise Program (MEP) module has been developed and implemented as exercise guidelines, but its effectiveness to improve physical performance of frail elderly has not been tested.Objective: The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the MEP in the module to improve frailty, hemodynamic parameters, and balance in pre-frail and frail elderly.Methods: Quasi-experimental method was used in the study involving 17 participants (73.47 + 8.43 years). The MEP was conducted 3 times per week for 12 weeks, consisted of flexibility, balance, aerobic, and strength training. Categorical data were analyzed using McNemar's test while analysis of continuous data using paired t-test or Wilcoxon Signed Rank, α = 0.05.Results: The MEP decreased frailty scores, systolic, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure (p < 0.000), and improved balance (p = 0.023) in the elderly. Furthermore, the program reduced the frailty status, as evidenced by 41.18% of frail participants becoming pre-frail and 5.88% participants shifting from pre-frail to robustness.Conclusion: The MEP in the module was effective to improve frailty, hemodynamic parameters, and balance in the elderly. However, this needs to be confirmed with larger samples and better research designs.
