About this study

Official title: Feasibility and Effect of Implementing Physical Activity Program Implementation During COVID-19 in Hospitalized Positive COVID-19 Older Adults

Our hypothesis was that physical activity program will be acceptable and may counteract physical and mental decline among older adults hospitalized in COVID-19 unit

Read the detailed description

The 30 second chair test, balance with joint-feet and semi-tandem stance, and 4 meters comfortable walking test were evaluated. Depending on their score, a specific physical activity (PA) program was selected and explained. The program was printed, explained and left in the room. This intervention included 5 different PA programs.

Final evaluation (one day before leaving the unit) recording physical performance (same physical tests used for inclusion evaluation), Hospital Anxiety and depression (HAD) score, Activities Daily Living (ADL) and self-satisfaction of the program.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of adherence of the intervention

    adherence of the intervention evaluated by the number of completed exercise days compared to the number of total intervention days

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 15 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change of physical performances

    Comparison between inclusion and final physical performances measured by the 30-second chair test, balance with joint-feet, semi-tandem stance, 4 meters comfortable walking test, functional abilities with the evaluation of ADL score and HAD scores.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 15 days
