Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of sarcopenia for elderly patients admitted to the rehabilitation ward, and to develop a system to support patients' home recovery by multi - occupational cooperation. As a result of examining the presence or absence of sarcopenia, 63% of male patients and 82% of female patients were sarcopenia. Next, in order to grasp the activity level of elderly patients, the activity meter was examined. As a result of the research, it became clear that by using an activity meter equipped with a triaxial acceleration sensor, it is possible to measure a suitable number of steps. From this, it was suggested that the approach using the activity meter equipped with triaxial acceleration sensor could be useful as a system to encourage patients to return home.
