| Research Abstract |
The prevalence of multiple geriatric syndromes was 15.3% in community-dwelling elderly. The multiple geriatric syndromes were significantly associated with fear of falling and usual walking speed. We conducted a randomized and controlled trial to evaluate the effects of the multidimensional exercises targeted at reducing the symptoms of functional decline, urinary incontinence, and fear of falling in community-dwelling elderly Japanese women with multiple symptoms of geriatric syndrome (MSGS). Sixty-one participants were randomly assigned either to an intervention (n=31) or to a control group (n=30). The functional decline of the intervention group decreased from 50.0% at baseline to 16.7% after intervention and follow-up (Q=16.67, p<0.001). For urinary incontinence, the intervention group decreased from 66.7% at baseline to 23.3% after intervention and 40.0% at follow-up (Q=13.56, p=0.001), whereas the control group showed no improvement. Within the subjects that showed improvement to normal status of MSGS, a significantly higher proportion demonstrated increased maximum walking speed at follow-up (Q=6.50, p=0.039). These results suggest that multidimensional exercise is an effective strategy for reducing geriatric syndromes in elderly population. An increase in walking ability may contribute to the improvement of MSGS.
