| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Unlike health enhansement program for elderly, few adequate community-based health-enhancing exercise programs for physically handicapped persons and frail elderly are available. We have developed a 10 minute exercise program aimed at maintenance and improvement of pulmonary function for prevention of pneumonia. The purposes of this study are to determine the characteristics of the participant, and to evaluate the effects of participation the program. Pulmonary function, health-related quality of life (HRQOL) were evaluated twice a year.The findings compared between two groups, namely wheelchair users (W/C group) and ambulant persons (AP group). All of eight domain of HRQOL, there were no significant differences between the groups. Values of %FEV1.0 and %PEF for the aspects of pulmonary function that relate to cough were low in the W/C group. PEF and %peak expiratory flow were significantly greater at 1 year later than at initiation of the program.
