Summary

ENTAiER study is a multicentre randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of eurythmy therapy and Tai Chi in comparison to standard care in chronically ill elderly patients with increased risk of falling. Subjects will be randomized to eurythmy therapy or Tai Chi or standard care alone. To investigate the changes in cardiovascular and sleep quality parameters under Eurythmy Therapy and Tai Chi in comparison to Standard Care in this trial, a substudy will be conducted only at the ARCIM Institute. The substudy will recruit enrolled participants from the ENTAiER trial to record various cardiovascular and sleep quality parameters. The aim is to compare changes in cardiovascular and sleep quality parameters under eurythmy therapy, Tai Chi and standard care alone in chronically ill elderly patients with increased risk of falling.
