Официальное название
Comparison of Physical Performance, Balance, and Functional Mobility Parameters According to Walking Speed Threshold Values in Geriatric Individuals
Обзор
The aim of this study is to examine the determining role of walking speed on physical performance parameters in individuals aged 65 and over. The study aims to compare flexibility, lower extremity muscle strength (5-count sit-stand test), static balance (single-leg balance), upper extremity muscle strength (hand grip), dynamic balance (FUT), functional mobility (TUG), and stair climbing/climbing skills in individuals with walking speeds of 0.4-0.8 m/s (limited community mobility) and above 0.8 m/s (independent community mobility).
Подробное описание
Although the relationships between walking speed and individual physical parameters have been studied in the geriatric literature, comprehensive analyses comparing multidimensional parameters such as flexibility, static-dynamic balance, hand grip strength, and stair activity performance in groups separated according to walking speed threshold values (0.4-0.8 m/s and \>0.8 m/s) are needed. This study aims to identify which physical components show the most significant deficits when walking speed decreases, thereby providing a scientific basis for clinical assessment processes and personalized preventive rehabilitation programs.
Вмешательства
- Другое Assessments
Assessments will be conducted after obtaining voluntary consent from the participants. The physical performance tests to be applied within the scope of the research will be carried out by the research team within the framework of internationally accepted standard protocols whose validity and reliability have been proven in the geriatric population.
