[Physical activity of elderly people living in district Koprzywnica (Poland)].
BACKGROUND Physical activity has good influence on health. The physical activity of elderly people may decrease, because of the health problems or think that with aging sport activity should be reduced. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to assess a physical activity and energy expenditure of people in age 60 and more in the Koprzywnica district (Poland). MATERIAL AND METHODS 95 persons in ...
متن کاملClassification of accelerometer wear and non-wear events in seconds for monitoring free-living physical activity
OBJECTIVE To classify wear and non-wear time of accelerometer data for accurately quantifying physical activity in public health or population level research. DESIGN A bi-moving-window-based approach was used to combine acceleration and skin temperature data to identify wear and non-wear time events in triaxial accelerometer data that monitor physical activity. SETTING Local residents in Sw...
متن کاملFunctional ability and nutritional status of free-living elderly people.
In 1990 almost half a billion people in the world were over 60 years old (World Bank, 1994). In only 40 years time this number will nearly triple. By the end of those same 40 years three-quarters of the world’s elderly population will be living in developing countries (Kinsella & Suzman, 1992). The challenge for the next century is to alter focus accordingly. Living longer comes at a price. Ext...

متن کاملMeasuring Physical Activity in Free-Living Conditions—Comparison of Three Accelerometry-Based Methods
We examined the agreement in time spent on different physical activity (PA) levels using (1) mean amplitude deviation (MAD) of raw acceleration from the hip, (2) wrist-worn Polar Active, and (3) hip-worn Actigraph counts using Freedson's cut-points among adults under free-living conditions. PA was measured in 41 volunteers (mean age 47.6 years) for 14 days. Two MET-based threshold sets were use...
