About this study
Official title: A Multicomponent Physical Exercise Program: a Tool to Maintain Autonomy, Reduce Frailty and Improve Functionality in Nursing Homes. Interventional Single Group Study
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether a physical exercise program in nursing homes will maintain autonomy in activities of daily living, decrease vulnerability and improve physical, psychological and cognitive condition. An individualized and progressive multi-component physical exercise program focused on function has been designed to achieve this objective.
Participant will engage in an exercise program for 6 months in their nursing homes, in two sessions per week of 45-60 minutes
Read the detailed description
Primary aim:
The major aim is to ascertain whether multicomponent exercise program focused on function can maintain autonomy in older adults living in nursing homes.
Secondary aims:
- To ascertain the influence of the evaluated exercise program on frailty, physical, psycho-affective and cognitive conditions in older people living in nursing homes.
- Analyze if the influence that the exercise program has had on dependence, frailty, physical, psycho-affective and cognitive condition is maintained after 6 months since the end of the program
- Examine the influence that the exercise program has on different clinical outcomes: falls, hospitalizations, visits to emergency service, the level of dependence, etc.
Design: experimental, multi-center and single-group physical exercise intervention
Intervention:
Combined multicomponent physical exercise program that includes strength, balance and flexibility exercises and performed in long term care homes focused on functionality on activities of daily living.
The first 3 months the exercise program aims to restore the physical condition through the multicomponent exercise program. Feasibility and safety of the multicomponent exercise program were ascertained in a previous study (Arrieta et al., 2018; Rodriguez-Larrad et al., 2017). This program will comprise of upper and lower body strengthening exercises, using external weights for 2-3 sets of 8-12 repetitions at a progressive incremental intensity of 30-50% of 1Repetition Maximum (RM). In addition, static balance and flexibility exercise will be performed.
From 3th to 6th months, the objective will be to improve autonomy in daily live activities through the functional exercise program. Strength exercises will be maintained with external weights and the intensity will be increased to 60-70% of 1-RM, 2-3 sets of 8-12 repetitions. Attention tasks, temporal space dissociation and dynamic balance exercises will be added to increase the difficulty and intensity in balance exercises. Flexibility and fine handle will be also performed.
This intervention is individualized for each participant and is adjusted progressively during the 6 months. Weekly, two sessions of one hour are held and are supervised by physiotherapists or specialists in sports sciences trained specifically for the program. An interval of at least 48h between training sessions will be respected.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Multicomponent physical exercise programOther
The intervention consists of a combined multicomponent exercise program (EP) carried out for 6 months that includes strength, balance, flexibility and functional exercises aimed to improve functioning on daily life activities. The EP will be divided into two parts:
The first 3 months the EP aims to restore the physical condition through the multicomponent exercise program. This program will comprise of upper and lower body strengthening exercises, using external weights for 2-3sets of 8-12repetitions at a progressive intensity of 30-50% of 1RM. In addition, static balance and flexibility exercise will be performed.
From 3th to 6th months, the objective will be to improve autonomy through the functional EP. Strength exercises intensity will be increased to 60-70% of 1-RM, 2-3sets of 8-12repetitions. Attention tasks, temporal space dissociation and dynamic balance exercises will be added to increase the intensity in balance exercises. Flexibility and fine handle will be also performed

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Barthel Index
Autonomy on daily living activities will be analyzed using the Barthel index. The Barthel index is a questionnaire with 10 items that evaluates the autonomy of the participant in the activities of daily life and it will be evaluated with the reference caregiver in nursing home. The Barthel index evaluates the following items: Feeding, Bathing, Dressing, Grooming, Bowels, Bladder, Toilette use, Transfer, Walking and Stairs. This items are scored as follows: 0 points if it is totally dependent, 5 points if needs some help and 10 points if the participant is totally autonomous
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Short Physical Performance Battery
Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) evaluates balance, gait ability, and leg strength using a single tool. The score for each part is given in categorical modality (0-4). This set of tests serves to predict falls, weakness and mortality. The best score will be 12 points and total score less than 10 points indicates frailty and high risk of disability. 1 point of change in the total score has demonstrated to be of clinical relevance.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Handgrip strength
To asses upper limbs strength (kg) will be used bilateral handgrip strength test by squeezing a dynamometer with maximum isometric effort for 5 seconds. It is a strong predictor of disability, morbidity, and mortality as well as one of the components of Fried's frailty phenotype. Ranges are corrected by BMI
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Timed Up and Go Test
Timed Up and Go (TUG) is a simple test used to assess a person's mobility and requires both static and dynamic balance. It uses the time that a person takes to rise from a chair, walk three meters, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down. The cut-off value for the TUG is 12 seconds The test score also correlates well with gait speed and the Barthel Index.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Secondary outcomes (16)
Fried frailty index
Fried index uses 5 criteria to define frailty: weight loss, exhaustion, physical activity, walk time and grip strength. Fulfilling three of these criteria indicates clinical frailty.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Tilburg frailty indicator
Tilburg indicator evaluates frailty through a self-reported questionnaire that includes physical, psychological and social domains. The score range is from 0 points to 15 points. High scores indicates higher frailty
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Rockwood frailty phenotype
9 phenotype ranging from very fit to terminally ill are evaluated in Rockwood frailty scale.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Anthropometry-Weight
Weight (kg)
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
Anthropometry-Height
Height (m)

Anthropometry-Circumferences
Neck circumference, mid arm circumference and calf circumference (cm)
Measured: Changes from baseline to 3rd 6th and 12th month
The Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale
The Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale will be used to assess affective state of anxiety and depression that includes nine depression and nine anxiety items from the last month. The cut-off points are ≥4 for the anxiety scale, and ≥2 for the depression scale.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 6th and 12th month
The Spanish Subjective Happiness scale
The Spanish Subjective Happiness scale test will be used to analyze the perceived happiness. It ranges from 0 to 28 points in four questions. Higher punctuation means higher happiness level.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 6th and 12th month
Quality of Life-Alzheimer Disease
Quality of Life-Alzheimer Disease (QoL-AD) test. Self-rated quality of life for people with cognitive impairments. The QoL-AD is comprised of 13 items (physical health, energy, mood, living situation, memory, family, marriage, friends, self as a whole, ability to do chores, ability to do things for fun, money and life as a whole). Response options include 1(poor), 2(fair), 3(good) and 4 (excellent), for a total score of 13-52, with higher scores indicating better QoL.
Measured: Changes from baseline to 6th and 12th month
Montreal Cognitive Assessment test (MOCA test)
The cognitive function will be assessed by MOCA test. Montreal Cognitive Assessment cover domains: attention and concentration, executive functions, memory and language skills, conceptual thinking, calculation and orientation. The MOCA is a validated test in Spanish. It ranges from 0 ( worse score ) to 30 (best score). A score less than 26 indicates suggest mild cognitive decline
Measured: Changes from baseline to 6th and 12th month
Pain level
Using a score from 0 points (lowest) to 10 points (highest) the participant will be asked to say how much it hurts in different parts of the body such as shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, back, hips, knees and ankles
