About this study
Official title: Effects of Lower Limb Leg Press Power Training Combined with Visual Feedback Games on Physical Performance, Cognitive Function, and Heart Rate Variability in the Elderly
This study investigates the effects of lower limb leg press power training combined with visual feedback games on the physical performance, cognitive function, and heart rate variability (HRV) of older adults aged 65 and above. Participants were divided into an experimental group and a control group, with the experimental group engaging in leg press exercises combined with visual games twice a week for 12 weeks.
Read the detailed description
This study aims to investigate the effects of lower limb leg press power training combined with visual feedback games on the physical and cognitive health of the elderly. With the aging population increasing, the decline in muscle strength and cognitive function has become a significant challenge for older adults. To address these health issues, this study plans to recruit 40 participants aged 65 and above and randomly assign long-term care centers into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group will perform leg press training combined with visual feedback games twice a week for 12 weeks, while the control group will continue their usual daily activities.

Lower Limb Strength Training Program with Visual FeedbackBehavioural
This lower limb explosive strength training system integrates visual feedback games and is equipped with angle and force sensors to simultaneously output the power of the left and right legs, as well as maximum explosive force and pushing force. Users can immediately understand the balance of leg strength and make adjustments, making it particularly suitable for the elderly to improve lower limb strength or for rehabilitation training. The gamification of the system enhances the fun of training, while data quantification allows progress tracking, making the training more precise and effective. Additionally, after the game ends, data can be exported to Excel for further analysis to identify issues in the pushing process and optimize the training plan.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Lower Limb Strength Training Program with Visual Feedback in people with Elderly (people Aged 65 or More), run by Kaohsiung Medical University at 1 site in Taiwan.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Muscle Strength (time frame: Testing will be conducted in Week 0, Week 6, and Week 13). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Dec 2024.
