Brief Summary:
Sarcopenia has been defined as an age related, involuntary loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. The prevalence of sarcopenia is about 10% globally, and risk factors of sarcopenia includes age, lower physical activity, and malnutrition. Sarcopenia can lead to many adverse health outcomes, particularly in physical and cognitive functions. Most of previous studies have reported that interactive exergame can improve cognitive and physical functions in older population but none of studies use of interactive exergame on older adults with sarcopenia. Therefore, the aim of study will investigate the effects of interactive exergame on older adults with sarcopenia.
Detailed Description:
A total of 60 older participants will be randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Participants in the experimental group will receive 40 minutes per session, 2 times a week for 12 weeks interactive exergame while those in the control group will maintain their regular activity. All participants will be assessed their physical and cognitive function, sarcopenia index and other health related outcome measurements before and after intervention program.
