Resumen

In Western society competing in physically demanding sport is not considered the domain of older people. For the majority of the twentieth century older people were stereotyped as frail, socially withdrawn and dependent on health and social welfare systems. Competitive athletes on the other hand are commonly viewed as being young, strong, aggressive, physically competent and independent. Although today’s older generation are encouraged to be physically active, society does not recognise serious competition or physically intense sports as age-appropriate activities for them. If older people cho

Resumen

Introduction: Resilience is an important trait and mechanism for older adults facing adversity in their later life. Physical activity has been established as an important determinant of mental health among older adults, in which relationship of resilience may play a mediating role. In order to examine the relationships among resilience, physical activity, and mental health in older adults, the current project is designed to conduct three studies. Study-1 aims to use qualitative method to identify the characteristics that contribute to resilience in a group of community-dwelling older adults in

Resumen

Thesis (MSportwet)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Proprioception is generally defined as the sense of position and movement of the limbs. The sense arises through activity in sensory neurons located in skin, muscles and joint tissues. Joint proprioception provides the neurological feedback needed for the control of muscle actions, and serves as protection against excessive strain on passive joints. The rationale for this study was that if proprioception improves, functional balance will improve. Improvements in functional balance will contribute to improvements in

Resumen

Australia has an increasingly aging population with increasing levels of physical inactivity. The potential detrimental effects of these two factors on the health of the community highlight the need to investigate methods to increase physical activity in older Australian adults. The study reported in this thesis formed part of the PATH (Physical Activity Time for Health) Project, a community-based research trial that compared two strategies to increase physical activity in underactive, 60-80 year old men (n = 66) and women (n = 188).

South Africa has the highest proportion of older adults in Southern Africa, with nearly 7% of the population over the age of 60 years in 1997. However, although people are living longer, statistics show that they are not necessarily living healthier. The majority of women who outlive men have to deal with more chronic diseases as well as a poorer functional status than the latter.

Thesis (M Sport Sc)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Falling is a common occurrence and one of the most serious problems in the elderly population (65 years and older). Falls account for 70% of accidental deaths in persons aged 75 years and older. Falls can be markers/indicators of poor health and declining function, and are often associated with significant morbidity. More than 90% of hip fractures occur as a result of falls, with most of these fractures occurring in persons over 70 years of age (Fuller, 2000).

Nevertheless, when taken separately, specific studies vary in methodology and in type(s) of exergaming topics studied. Health benefits from exergaming may only be gained if older peopl

Resumen

Falls are a major cause of injury fear of falling and death affecting 24% of older people annually. Falls have a major impact on hospital services, are an important cause of carer strain and admission to long term care. Multifactorial interventions delivered to fallers are effective in reducing falls rates by 25%. However, no UK studies have evaluated the role of screening older people living in the community and offering those at high risk a falls prevention programme. This work describes two studies – the evaluation of a postal falls risk screening tool, and a randomised controlled trial ass

It is evident that the global population is ageing, with an increasing proportion of people aged over 65 years. Typically associated with a high proportion of morbidity and mortality, care of the increasing ageing population presents a challenge, with age-appropriate research required to promote and facilitate healthy ageing. In the present work, a novel drug delivery technology, designed to enhance transdermal drug delivery, was considered in the context of its potential future use in the older population.

Resumen

Diabetes prevalence is increasing in our ageing and increasingly obese society. Diabetes is a heterogeneous condition, and challenges remain in all aspects of its management - from diagnosis through to optimising treatment, to managing complications. Increasing age brings altered physiological responses to disease, treatments and complications - and there may be more wide-ranging considerations such as dietary, mobility, dependency or cognition, to name just a few. Hypoglycaemia is one of the most important potential side-effects of insulin-therapy, and elderly adults are at particular risk fr

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is common and the prevalence increases with age. When OSA leads to sleep disruption and excessive daytime sleepiness, it is referred to as obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS). The aim of this thesis was to investigate the consequences of OSAS in older people (˃ 65 years) and the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. CPAP is the treatment of choice in moderate to severe OSAS in middle aged people. However, there is a paucity of evidence on the therapeutic and economic benefits of CPAP in older people with OSAS.

Three substantive chapters examine labour market dynamics among older people. Chapter 2 analyses older men and women's labour market transitions using the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS). I find large peaks in exit rates out of employment at ages 60 and 65 occurring in the exact birthday month, suggesting strong incentive effects of pension schemes. Discrete-time hazard regression analysis shows that health and potential income out of work are the most important determinants of these transitions, with effects that are larger than found in previous studies for British and US men.
