HUZUREVİ SAKİNLERİNDE BACAK VE GÖVDE KASLARININ İZOMETRİK KUVVETİNİN DENGE VE YAŞAM KALİTESİNE OLAN ETKİLERİ

Year 2017, Volume: 1 Issue: 3, 92 - 100, 23.11.2017

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı, yaşlı kişilerde denge ve sağlıkla ilişkili yaşam
kalitesi ile bacak ve gövdenin izometrik kas kuvveti arasında olan ilişkileri
araştırmaktı.

Gereç ve
Yöntem:
Bu
çalışmaya, normal bilişsel fonksiyona sahip toplam 16 huzurevi sakini (13 erkek
ve üç kadın; ortalama yaş:
73,31±5,61 yıl) dahil edildi. Yaşlıların
tamamı, yardımcı bir cihaz kullanmadan bağımsız bir şekilde yürüyebiliyorlardı.
Değerlendirmelerde, Nottingham Sağlık Profili (NSP), Mini Mental Durum Testi
(MMSE-E), Berg Denge Ölçeği (BDÖ) ve ayak bileği, diz, kalça ve gövdenin
fleksör ve ekstansör kaslarının el dinamometresi izometrik kuvvet ölçümleri
kullanıldı. Normal bilişsellik, MMSE-E≥24 şeklinde belirlendi. Ölçüm sonuçları
arası ilişkiler,
Spearman korelasyon
katsayısı ile incelendi ve anlamlılık düzeyi p<0,05
şeklinde kabul edildi.

Bulgular: Ayak bileğinin dorsi
fleksör kasları hariç, gövde ve bacağın izometrik kuvvet değerleri ile NSP ve
BDÖ sonuçları arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olmadığı bulundu. Ayak bileği
dorsi fleksiyon kuvveti, NSP Bölüm I toplam puanı
(r=−0.625, p<0.01) ve BDÖ sonucu (r=0.509, p<0.05) ile anlamlı düzeyde
ilişkiliydi.







Sonuç: Bu sonuca göre yaşlı
insanların kas-kuvvetlendirme antrenmanları, ayak bileği dorsi fleksör
egzersizlerini içermelidir.

EFFECTS OF ISOMETRIC STRENGTH OF THE TRUNK AND LEG MUSCLES ON THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND BALANCE IN NURSING HOME RESIDENTS

Year 2017, Volume: 1 Issue: 3, 92 - 100, 23.11.2017

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the relationships in between isometric muscles
strength of trunk and leg with health-related quality of life and balance in
elderly
persons.

Material and Method: Total 16 nursing home
residents
(13 men and three women;
mean age: 73,31±5,61 years)
with normal cognition were included in this
study. All of elders could walk independently without the use of assistive
devices.
The Nottingham Health
Profile (NHP), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE-E), Berg Balance Scale (BBS)
and hand-held dynamometer
isometric strength measurements to the flexor and extensor
muscles of trunk, hip, knee, ankle were used for evaluations. Normal cognition
was determined
as MMSE-E≥24. The relationships among the measurement results investigated using Spearman correlation coefficients and significance level is accepted as p<0,05.

Results: There were not found
important relationship in between the results of
NHP and BBS with the
isometric strength values of the trunk and leg with the exception of
the ankle dorsiflexor muscles. The ankle dorsi flexion strength was
related significantly with
total Part I score of
the
NHP (r=−0.625, p<0.01). and result of the BBS (r=0.509, p<0.05).







Conclusion: This result is suggested
that muscle-strengthening trainings of elderly people should be included the
ankle dorsiflexor exercises.
