Physical Activity in Non-Frail and Frail Older Adults
INTRODUCTION Physical activity (PA) is important for healthy ageing. Better insight into objectively measured PA levels in older adults is needed, since most previous studies employed self-report measures for PA assessment, which are associated with overestimation of PA. AIM This study aimed to provide insight in objectively measured indoor and outdoor PA of older adults, and in PA difference...
متن کاملImmunologic Changes in Frail Older Adults
UNLABELLED Several studies have shown a heightened inflammatory state in frail older adults, marked by high serum levels of interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein and an increased number of circulating leukocytes. Activation of monocytes and macrophages, marked by increased levels of neopterin, may contribute to chronic inflammation in the frail older adult. However, the reduced mononuclear cell ...
متن کاملImplementing the chronic care model for frail older adults in the Netherlands: study protocol of ACT (frail older adults: care in transition)
BACKGROUND Care for older adults is facing a number of challenges: health problems are not consistently identified at a timely stage, older adults report a lack of autonomy in their care process, and care systems are often confronted with the need for better coordination between health care professionals. We aim to address these challenges by introducing the geriatric care model, based on the c...
متن کاملCaring for frail older adults: a theoretical and methodological agenda.
An estimated 45 million family members, friends, and neighbors provide unreimbursed home care services for older adults who require some form of assistance to remain in the community because of one or more chronic illnesses or disabilities (National Alliance for Caregiving & AARP, 2009). Research reports indicate these informal caregivers often feel burdened and unprepared to provide home care ...
متن کاملLow patient activation levels in frail older adults: a cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND Frail older adults are increasingly expected to self-manage their health and healthcare. We assessed the extent to which this group is able to take up this responsibility by measuring their level of activation as patients (i.e. their knowledge, skills and confidence to self-manage their health and healthcare). Further, we studied which characteristics of older adults were associated ...
