摘要
OBJECTIVE Ankle-foot control is essential to maintain balance and gait stability. However, there has been limited evidence on the effect of ankle-foot exercises on balance and falls in older people. This study aimed to summarize the effects of ankle-foot exercises on ankle flexibility and strength, balance, mobility, and falls in older people, and to identify determining factors for ankle-foot exercises to improve balance and mobility. METHODS CINAHL, Embase, PubMed, and PEDro were searched to...
本研究旨在系统评价和荟萃分析踝足运动对老年人踝关节力量、平衡能力和跌倒的影响。现有证据对踝足运动改善老年人平衡和预防跌倒的效果尚不明确,因此需要进一步研究。
研究人员检索了多个数据库,包括CINAHL、Embase、PubMed和PEDro,以识别评估踝足运动对老年人踝关节控制、平衡和跌倒影响的随机对照试验。使用PEDro量表评估研究的方法学质量,并进行荟萃分析。
荟萃分析结果表明,踝足运动显著改善了踝关节跖屈力量、踝关节灵活性和睁眼条件下的平衡能力。然而,对踝关节背屈力量、闭眼条件下的平衡能力和步速没有显著影响。少量研究报告了对跌倒恐惧、跌倒发生率和跌倒风险没有显著影响。
