“…The fear of falling also leads to depression and lower quality of life in the elderly [3]. Studies on T balance confidence have reported its relationship with some functional abilities and personal characteristics in the elderly [4,5]. In addition to the relationship between balance confidence and balance performance [6,7], the relationship between balance confidence and physical activity [8] has also been confirmed.…”

Objectives The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between self-regulation and balance confidence among the active and in-active elderly in the city of Mahabad. Methods & MaterialsThe cross-correlational research included elderly people aged 60 to 85 years and living in Mahabad city. A total of 93 active elderly and 93 in-active elderly were randomly selected as sample. The Balance Confidence questionnaire and Self-Regulation questionnaire were used to gather data. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Pearson correlation, multiple regressions, and independent t test were used to analyze the collected data. This study was performed using SPSS software. Results The results showed that balance confidence had a positive and significant relationship with all the dimensions of self-regulation in the elderly (P≤0.05). Other than the disclosure feelings component (P=0.250), other dimensions of self-regulation can effect balance confidence. It was also found that there is a significant difference between the active (balance confidence: 3.2446±0.63735; self-regulation: 3.8017±0.75943) and in-active (balance confidence: 2.3468±0.69454; self-regulation: 2.8208±0.79782) elderly (P≤0.05). Conclusion This study confirms that lack of self-regulation in the elderly can lead to decreased physical activity and restrictions. It is suggested that self-regulation should be emphasized in the elderly so that they can overcome their environmental issues and enhance their balance confidence. A B S T R A C T Key words:Older adults, Balance confidence, Positive performance, Self-regulation Extended Abstract Objectivehe main consequences of balance problems in the elderly are falling and the fear of falling; these two consequences affect everyday life activities and the ability to move in home and community [1,2]. The fear of falling also leads to depression and lower quality of life in the elderly [3]. Studies on T balance confidence have reported its relationship with some functional abilities and personal characteristics in the elderly [4,5]. In addition to the relationship between balance confidence and balance performance [6,7], the relationship between balance confidence and physical activity [8] has also been confirmed. One of the factors that can contribute to balance confidence in the elderly is self-regulation. Self-regulation refers to the processes based on which people control their thoughts, feelings, and actions [9]. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the relationship between Methods & MaterialsThe present study was an applied research in terms of objective and also a descriptive-correlational one in terms of data collection. The entire research process was conducted under the supervision of the local ethics committee of the Department of Sports Sciences in Uremia University. The study population consisted of all older adults aged 60-85 years old in Mahabad city. A sample of 93 active and 93 inactive elders was selected using available sampling method. Here, inactive elderly subjects referred to those el...

“…The test is completed when the subject touches the ground with his non-dominant foot, the dominant foot is being displaced from the first position or twisted in any direction. The mean time of maintain balance based on the aforementioned conditions in 2 consecutive tests was considered as the patient's record; the maximum score was 120 seconds [21]. The validity (0.99) and reliability (0.87) of the test was confirmed [22].…”

The elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis who developed end-stage renal failure are at higher risk for falling and its critical outcomes compared with their healthy counterparts due to of poor balance, reduced muscle endurance, and sedentary lifestyle. The current study aimed at evaluating the effect of selected core stability exercises on balance and muscle endurance in the elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: In the current quasi-experimental study, a total of 30 patients undergoing hemodialysis with the mean age of 62.24±6.51 years, the mean hemodialysis duration of 29.4±18.44 months, and the history of falling at least once during the last year were selected using the purposive convenience sampling method and then, the subjects were randomly allocated into 2 groups of intervention (n=15) and control (n=15). To assess the static balance, dynamic balance, and muscle endurance in the patients, the stork stand test, the timed Up and Go test (TUG), and the sit-to-stand-to-sit test for 60 seconds (STS-60) were used, respectively. The selected core stability exercises were performed for the intervention group in 6 weeks, three 45-minute sessions per week. To analyze data, the repeated measures analysis of variance (RM ANOVA) with SPSS version 22 was used; P<0.05 was considered the level of significance. Results: Results of the current study indicated significant differences between the groups in terms of static balance, dynamic balance, and muscle endurance (P<0.001). In other words, the implemented exercises significantly affected the studied variables. Conclusion: Based on the obtained results, the therapists can suggest the core stability exercises as a safe and functional strategy to improve balance and muscle endurance in patients undergoing hemodialysis, which may result in increased independence of action and reduced risk of falling due to loss of balance.

“…Traditional or conventional balance exercise is a type of exercise which consists of dynamic and static balance exercises focusing on the ability to maintain the body posture, improve coordination, proprioception and enhance daily activities for falls prevention among elderly [7,8]. Conventional balance exercises consist of tandem walking, standing on one leg with eye opened and eye closed, sideways, forward, and backward walking, weight shifts on legs and figure of eight waling [9].…”

ABSTRACT:Background: Falling among old individuals has provoked ceaseless discussion among gerontologists and physical therapists and it is still one of the greatest issues among this population. Loss of the balance and functional mobility is the main reason of falling. There have been numerous studies conducting the effect of the conventional balance exercise and exergame independently on balance and functional mobility of elderly. Previous studies lacked dealing with the effect of combined exergame and conventional exercise on the balance and functional mobility. Combined exercises are enjoyable and may have more effective to improve balance and performance to reduce risk of fall among elderly people. This package would be preferable for older people. Objective: We hypothesize that while conventional balance exercise and exergame improve balance and functional mobility, combined both types of exercise would superior improvements in elderly performance. Conclusion: Ultimately we expect that this hypothesis will provide a useful framework for facilitating combined exergame and conventional balance intervention in older people.
