Summary

Objective: to assess the effectiveness of a multi-component physical exercise online intervention (MPE) on physical performance (PP) in community-dwelling older adults.

Methods: a randomized controlled trial, including 110 older adults (68.45±5.54 years), were divided into two parallel groups: an MPE group (n = 55) and a control group (n = 55). The exercise program included endurance, strength, coordination, balance, and flexibility exercises which were carried out for 3 months. The control group received educational sessions on health prevention related to physical exercise. The main endpoint was a change in PP assessed with the short physical performance battery (SPPB). It is also evaluated other variables such as sociodemographic (sex, age, education level), health conditions (cognitive impairment, polypharmacy, comorbidity, frailty, sarcopenia, depressive and anxiety symptoms), functional dependence through scales of activities of daily living (ADL), nutrition (risk of malnutrition, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), calf and waist circumference) and lifestyles (physical activity, alcoholism, and smoking). Comparisons were made in the follow-up measurements between groups by an independent t-test and baseline and follow-up measurements in both groups by a paired t-test.

Multi-component physical exercise online intervention

A multicomponent exercise program was implemented consisting of a combined program of endurance, strength, coordination, balance, and flexibility exercises depending on the level of functional capacity. Three types of physical exercise programs were designed according to the physical performance level of each participant. The first type of exercise program training was performed for frail adults with an SPPB score of 4 to 6, the second was for the pre-frail adults with an SPPB score of 7 to 9 and the third for robust adults with an SPPB of 10 to 12.
