| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to identify the locomotive syndrome in the community living elderly peoples.
Londitudinallocomotive function was investigated in the community living elderly peoples in Yakumo town. And programs for improveing motor function were also investigated. Healthy volunteers, 244 peoples (male:116, female:128) were included in this study. Average age were 64.8 years old. A 10m walking speed, Time uo and go test (TUG), standing up from 40cm height, and two-step test were examined. TUG and two step test were signifivcantlly corretated. Locomo 25 questionaire were weakly correlated with TUG. TUG and 40cm standing up test were signifivcantlly corretated. The program for the people with locomotive syndrome should walk fast with a longer steps.
In conclusion, TUG is an excellent functional test to identify the locomotive syndrome for the community living elderly peopeles.
