“…In addition, the 6MWT has been suggested to be reflective of the requirements of ADL performance [91], as walking difficulties can limit activity and participation in everyday life. No other physical improvements were observed following the ADL training, which contradicts a large study who report improved mobility, gait, and balance [24]. This could be due to the comparatively smaller sample size (87 vs. 486) and lower average MMSE score (12.3 vs. 20.4) in our study [24].…”

This could be due to the comparatively smaller sample size (87 vs. 486) and lower average MMSE score (12.3 vs. 20.4) in our study [24]. However, other studies did not find benefits of ADL training on physical performance [26,29], which may suggest that the focus of the ADL intervention on training specific functional activities may not necessarily translate to improvements in physical functions.…”

“…The first method, ADL training, stimulates physical activity by encouraging residents to perform as much of their self-care as independently as possible during daily care tasks [24]. There is some evidence that ADL training can improve cognitive functions [25], physical functions [24,26,27], depressive symptoms [28,29], and agitation [29].…”

Background/Aims: There is no consensus regarding the optimal nonpharmacological intervention to slow down dementia-related decline. We examined whether physical stimulation interventions were effective in reducing cognitive, physical, mood, and behavioral decline in nursing home residents with dementia. Methods: Eighty-seven nursing home residents with dementia were randomly assigned to 3 physical activity interventions: activities of daily living (ADL) training, multicomponent exercise training, or combined multicomponent exercise and ADL training. Outcomes were measured at baseline, and after 3 and 6 months. Results: A 6-month ADL training benefitted executive functions, physical endurance, and depression among men. Exercise training benefitted only grip strength of participants with mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment. A combined training benefitted functional mobility compared to ADL training, depressive symptoms and agitation compared to exercise training, and physical endurance compared to no physical stimulation. Conclusions: ADL training appears to be effective for nursing home residents with moderately severe dementia. It remains unclear whether exercise training is an effective type of stimulation.

“…Previous RCT's and longitudinal studies indicates that engagement in physical related activities such as gardening and walking improved physical related functions such as muscular strength, balance and range of movement (Resnick et al 2009;Egan and Mantes, 2010;Frandin, et, al, 2013), increased physical function and fitness (Shin et al 2009;Lee, Lee andWoo, 2010, Frandin, et, al, 2013).…”

Older people in an institution live in a sedentary lifestyle. They lose their autonomy, seldom engage in activities and did not have a meaningful social relationship. These issues lead to decreased in quality of life (QoL). The aim of this randomised trial is to determine the effectiveness of a lifestyle redesign programme, i.e. the Lively Later Life Programme (3LP) on QoL. Eighty-two older people who fit the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to the 3LP group and the control group. At the end of six months, there is a significant change in physical, psychological and social domains of QoL.

“…84 Frail older adults with multiple comorbidities and high disability levels residing in care homes are even more likely to have very limited physical activity levels. 85,86 To influence the physical activity behaviour of as many residents as possible, and maximise exposure to the exercise sessions, any activity/exercise intervention should offer a variety of physical activity opportunities without placing unreasonable demands on care home staff.…”

Reports are published in Health Technology Assessment (HTA) if (1) they have resulted from work for the HTA programme, and (2) they are of a sufficiently high scientific quality as assessed by the reviewers and editors.Reviews in Health Technology Assessment are termed 'systematic' when the account of the search appraisal and synthesis methods (to minimise biases and random errors) would, in theory, permit the replication of the review by others. HTA programmeThe HTA programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care.The journal is indexed in NHS Evidence via its abstracts included in MEDLINE and its Technology Assessment Reports inform National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance. HTA research is also an important source of evidence for National Screening Committee (NSC) policy decisions.For more information about the HTA programme please visit the website: www.hta.ac.uk/ This reportThe research reported in this issue of the journal was funded by the HTA programme as project number 06/02/01.
