Effectiveness of Exergame Intervention on Walking in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

2020

Abstract Objective The objective of this review was to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of exergaming on walking in older adults. In addition, the aim was to investigate the relationship between the exergaming effect and age, baseline walking performance, exercise traits, technology used, and the risk of bias. Methods A literature search was carried out in the databases MEDLINE, CINAHL, CENTRAL, EMBASE, WoS, PsycInfo, and PEDro up to January 10, 2020. Studies with a randomized controlled trial design, people ≥60 years of age without neurological disorders, comparison group with other exercise or no exercise, and walking-related outcomes were included. Cochrane RoB2, meta-analysis, …

Effects of a home-based, exergaming intervention on physical function and pain after total knee replacement in older adults : a randomised controlled…

2023

ObjectivesTo investigate the effects of 4 months of customised, home-based exergaming on physical function and pain after total knee replacement (TKR) compared with standard exercise protocol.MethodsIn this non-blinded randomised controlled trial, 52 individuals aged 60–75 years undergoing TKR were randomised into an exergaming (intervention group, IG) or a standard exercising group (control group, CG). Primary outcomes were physical function and pain measured before and after (2 months and 4 months) surgery using the Oxford Knee Score (OKS) and Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Secondary outcomes included measures of the Visual Analogue Scale, 10m walking, short physical performance battery, iso…

Apuvälineet ja teknologia osana fysioterapian ja fysioterapeutin ydinosaamista

2017

Aiempi tutkimustieto osoittaa, että fysioterapiaa ja apuvälineitä, terveys- ja hyvinvointiteknologiaa tai etäteknologiaa yhdistävää tutkimustietoa on vähän. Tarvitaan lisää tietoa apuvälineiden, teknologian ja etäteknologian käytöstä fysioterapiassa, niiden yhteydestä fysioterapian ydinosaamiseen sekä siitä, mitkä tekijät vaikuttavat niiden käyttöön fysioterapiassa. Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten suomalaisten fysioterapeuttien yksilölliset ja työhön liittyvät taustatekijät vaikuttavat apuvälineiden, terveys- ja hyvinvointiteknologian sekä etäteknologian käyttöön fysioterapian ydinosaamisalueilla. Lisäksi työn tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten suomalaiset fys…

Effectiveness of Gamification in Knee Replacement Rehabilitation : Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial With a Qualitative Approach

2022

Background: Exergames can provide encouraging exercise options. Currently, there is limited evidence regarding home-based exergaming in the postoperative phase of total knee replacement (TKR). Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of a 4-month postoperative home-based exergame intervention with an 8-month follow-up on physical function and symptoms among older persons undergoing TKR compared with home exercise using a standard protocol. In addition, a concurrent embedded design of a mixed methods study was used by including a qualitative component within a quantitative study of exergame effects. Methods: This was a dual-center, nonblinded, two-arm, parallel group randomized…

Movement characteristics during customized exergames after total knee replacement in older adults

2022

Introduction: There is limited understanding of how older adults can reach kinematic goals in rehabilitation while performing exergames and conventional exercises, and how similar or different the kinematics during exergaming are when compared with conventional therapeutic exercise with similar movement. The aim of this study was to describe the movement characteristics performed during exercise in custom-designed exergames and conventional therapeutic exercises among patients who have undergone unilateral total knee replacement (TKR). In addition, the secondary aim was to assess the relation of these exercise methods, and to assess participants' perceived exertion and knee pain during exer…
