“…8,9 Com a diminuição da força muscular é possível observar também uma redução na força de preensão palmar, 10 que está intimamente relacionada à funcionalidade. 11 Nesse contexto, o sedentarismo é um importante fator relacionado ao desequilíbrio entre a síntese e a degradação proteica, especialmente na população idosa. 7 A prática de exercícios físicos, principalmente resistidos, é a intervenção mais indicada para o tratamento da sarcopenia, pois aumenta a força e resistência muscular.…”

Measuring physical function in people with dementia: a psychometric investigation

Dementia is a global issue, and it is a growing problem. Exercise is an effective intervention strategy for improving cognition and physical function for people of all ages, and measurement is fundamental to scientific endeavour. This thesis sits at the crossroads to these three key areas. Without appropriate psychometric justification behind the choice of measurement tools for exercise intervention studies, the validity of outcomes to suggest that exercise is beneficial for people with dementia should be called into question. This thesis aims to identify common measures of physical function, a key construct to remaining independent for people with dementia, assess their psychometric properties and determine whether such significantly different in the first trial (p<0.05), generally these differences were no longer present by the third trial (p>0.05). It was evident that the majority of our sample were able to complete the measures to standardised the protocol. In Stage Four, the previous definitions of physical function, which centre on capacity to complete complex and basic daily tasks, is appropriate for people with dementia.However, further attention should be given to the tasks most basic and central to remaining independent.The discussion focussed on three main findings from this thesis. These are; there is reasonable evidence to support the use of assessed measures, intended use should guide clinicians and researchers, and simple measures for people that have low physical and low cognitive function should be used. Implications will translate these main findings into expected consequences of this work. To my friends, mentors and family who have walked along side me throughout the course of my candidature, I cannot begin to put into words the debt of gratitude that is owed to you. For the listening ear when I could not stop talking about my thesis in the good times, for the distraction when I needed it in the not so good times, for the good coffee at all times, and for the wisdom at the right times, thank you.

Background At‐home physical exercise may be an important intervention strategy for older people with Alzheimer disease (AD) due to the greater adherence and ease for the caregivers. Purpose Determine the effects home‐based multimodal exercise program in older people with AD on muscle strength, balance, functioning, cognition, dual task performance, frailty, and physical activity level. Methods This is a trial with 40 older people with mild and moderate AD, randomized into intervention group (IG) and control group (CG). The participants will be evaluated by blinded examiners at baseline and after 16 weeks of training. The evaluations will investigate functioning (Timed Up and Go test, Direct Assessment of Functional Status, WHO Disability Assessment Schedule, Short Physical Performance Battery, and Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire), muscle strength (manual dynamometer and Sit‐to‐Stand test), frailty (FRAIL Scale and Edmonton Frail Scale), cognition (Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination, Trail Making Test, Walking Trail‐Making Test, and Frontal Assessment Battery), balance (force platform, Figure‐of‐Eight Walking Test, Functional Reach Test, Alternate Step Test, and Calf‐Raise Senior), dual task (force platform), and physical activity level (Modified Baecke Questionnaire and Life‐Space Assessment). The IG will perform 16 weeks of exercise at home that involve functioning, strength, balance, and aerobic endurance in 60‐min sessions three times a week. The CG will not undergo any intervention. Conclusion Improvements in the aspects evaluated are expected in the IG compared to CG. The protocol will provide a theoretical basis for the creation of clinical interventions and health promotion measures for older people with AD.
