| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate a balance function of the community-dwelling latter-stage elderly needing the foot care. The subjects were 75 years or older living in an urban community. We examined the association between the foot condition and the physical activity function, the mental function and the daily life activity of the elderly. The hallux valgus index was found to be correlated with toe flexor muscle strength and grip strength, but no significant relationship was found with the functional reach test (FRT) score, the daily steps and the fall efficacy scale-international (FSE-I) score. Two years later, the muscular strength of the elderly person decreased, but the balance ability was relatively maintained. The elderly person whom the uneasiness to a fall climbed into was 30%. At three months after the foot care was offered, the satisfaction to a recreational activity increased, but the performance of a daily living activity and the work decreased.
