|
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of apply to home based exercise program that consisted of lower extremity exercise on isokinetic knee strength in elderly at nursing home. Thirty eight subjects were participated in current study and divided two groups that home exercise program group and control group (home exercise group 76.83±4.06 years, control group 78.82±3.00). The subject’s isokinetic knee strength was measured by Biodex isokinetic system 4 (Biodex medical. U.S.A) at pre-intervention, post-intervention. We measured muscle’s peak torque, endurance and ratio(H/Q ratio). Home exercise program group has receive lower extremity exercise program that consisted of 6 exercises for 5 weeks. Control group has no intervention. The home exercise program group has significant change of muscle’s peak torque and endurance after applying intervention. But muscle ratio has no significant change both groups. On basis of these results, we concluded that home based exercise program that consised of lower extremity exercise has improved isokinteic knee strength in elderly at nursing home.
