Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to verify the effect to prevent of falls for the elderly which offer of the foot care as nursing treatment for the posture maintenance function. The onychomycosis condition in the SCIO scores has improved it as a result of offering the healthy elderly persons the foot care for three months and six months. These findings suggested that foot care affects the standing position of elderly persons with onychomycosis as well as that of those with tylositas in sole. However, it was difficult to maintain the condition of the foot only by self care after intervention. In the elderly persons in facility, neither the standing function nor the posture control have changed though the state of the onychomycosis was improved.
