Outline of Final Research Achievements

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, efforts to promote health and prevent the need for nursing care have intensified. Remote health support using communication technology has emerged as a promising solution to prevent social isolation. In this study, we provided exercise and sports programs for the elderly using a telehealth support method based on adapted sports science. We developed an exercise intervention program and content that can be used in both face-to-face group settings and on-demand formats, allowing for engagement in exercise anytime, anywhere. Additionally, we devised a telehealth support system that evaluates convenience and effectiveness by analyzing health data before and after the intervention period, conducting mood profile tests during the implementation, and assessing autonomic nervous system balance through heart rate variability analysis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

多くの先行研究で,運動・スポーツが日常生活活動はもちろん,人生・生活の質においても好影響をもたらすことが分かっている。そのため,身体面,精神面,社会面を考慮した当事者主体の支援を行う必要性が示されてきたが,COVID-19以後,運動習慣をもつ人の割合が低下し,要介護状態にある人の運動機会は更に限られていることが明らかとなっている。本研究は,遠隔通信技術の活用によって,特に外出が困難な状況にある人の健康支援を,低コストで実施できることに大きな意義がある。また,要介護状態にある人への適用は,重度の身体障害者への展開にもつながる可能性を有している。
