Abstract

The VIVIFRAIL program is an Multi Component Physical Exercise (MPC) program which includes strength trainings, aerobics, gait trainings, balance and flexibility exercises tailored for each individual, and designed to facilitate evidence-based exercise interventions for elder adults. This program, which is unprecedented in Indonesia, is targeting elder adults in the pre-frail stage who are aiming for robust or fit status. This study utilizes a qualitative method with 15 older adults as the respondents. The data was collected from semi-structured interviews to encourage respondents to openly share their experience on the VIVIFRAIL program. The Consolidate criteria for Reporting Qualitative research (COREQ) method is used for reporting. The objective of this study is to find out the elderly's first experience of participating in VIVIFRAIL exercise and its benefits in returning the elderly's physical performance to robust or fit status as well as the selection of accompanying music during the 12 week exercise in the Ward Area of Ardirejo, Kepanjen District. The results showed that our respondents experienced positive feeling and felt physically fit and fresh. They could also monitor their blood pressure and train their balance to avoid falling. Moreover, after getting the benefit, respondents expected that the program could be continued. As for the workout music selection, respondents chose Javanese traditional music (gending), dangdut/koplo, local music, campursari, oldies songs, and Malangan songs for accompanying their exercise. In conclusion, after participating in the VIVIFRAIL program for 12 weeks, the respondents felt positive and physically fit and fresh.

Abstract

Highlights: 1. This study emphasizes the importance of providing physical exercises to pre-frail elderly individuals, especially in a community setting. 2. This study establishes a foundation for future research to explore the relationship between physical exercise, particularly the Vivifrail Type C Protocol, and cognitive function in pre-frail elderly individuals. Abstract Frailty is a clinical syndrome that increases vulnerability, potentially leading to disability or death. The pre-frail phase is ideal for preventing frailty and improving quality-adjusted life years, particularly through physical exercises that reduce the risk of dementia and cognitive impairment. Multicomponent exercises, such as the Vivifrail Exercise Program, may enhance cognitive function and daily independence by preventing and mitigating frailty through tailored routines. However, its impact on cognitive function in pre-frail elderly people had not been well studied. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Vivifrail Exercise Program Type C on the cognitive function of pre-frail elderly people. This study was a quasi-experiment with a non-randomized control group pretest-posttest design. The sample was chosen by the quota sampling method. Twenty-seven subjects were analyzed, comprising 16 individuals in the exercise group and 11 individuals in the control group. The exercise group participated in the Vivivfrail Type C Exercise Program, with 45-minute sessions conducted biweekly for 12 weeks. The evaluated parameters included the Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Indonesian Version (MoCA-INA) and the Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment (LOTCA). The statistical analysis utilized the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by the post-hoc Mann-Whitney test and independent t-test (p<0.05). A path analysis was performed using simple linear regression. The subjects' average ages were 72.2 years in the control group and 67.47 years in the exercise group. The Vivifrail Exercises Program Type C significantly improved the MoCA-INA scores from 20.25 to 24.06. It also increased the LOTCA scores in several domains, i.e., thinking operations and visual perception. The exercise group demonstrated more improvement than the control group (p=0.032). An enhancement in cognitive function was particularly observed in elderly women with pre-frailty. In conclusion, the Vivifrail Exercise Program Type C can help improve the cognitive function of the elderly within the community.
