Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical and nursing equipment, and more particularly to the field of adjustable balance devices, specifically a novel support-type physical training balance device. Background Technology

[0002] Sarcopenia is an age-related skeletal muscle loss disorder characterized by decreased muscle mass, strength, and / or physical decline. Sarcopenia can lead to functional impairment, falls, fractures, and even death in older adults, severely impacting their quality of life. It can also increase hospitalization costs for patients over 65 years of age.

[0003] With the increasing aging population, health issues related to the elderly have become a key focus of healthcare. Sarcopenia, an age-related progressive and widespread syndrome characterized by a decrease in overall muscle mass, strength, and / or physical function, not only reduces physical activity, leading to mobility limitations and falls, but also further lowers quality of life and increases the societal burden. Studies have shown that as the severity of sarcopenia increases, patients' balance function also declines, increasing the risk of falls. Therefore, focusing on balance function in elderly individuals with sarcopenia is of great significance. However, current research on sarcopenia primarily focuses on its impact on muscle strength and cardiopulmonary capacity, with relatively limited research on balance function in patients with sarcopenia. Functional fitness testing, as an important indicator for assessing the physical function of the elderly, reflects the comprehensive physiological state of the body, including cardiopulmonary function, muscle function, flexibility, and balance. Balance function is one of the important fitness indicators for evaluating the physical condition of the elderly and can effectively predict the risk of falls. The level of balance function may be closely related to the levels of other physical fitness indicators. Analyzing the impact of other physical fitness indicators on balance function may provide new ideas for the assessment of physical function and subsequent exercise intervention for patients with sarcopenia.

[0004] In clinical studies, sarcopenia can be classified as primary or secondary. Primary sarcopenia refers to a disease related to aging without other obvious causes, with a prevalence of approximately 10%. Secondary sarcopenia refers to a disease with medical evidence of one or more causes, which can be further divided into activity-related, nutrition-related, and disease-related. Secondary sarcopenia is commonly seen in patients with digestive system diseases, endocrine disorders, and cancer, with a prevalence of 30% or higher. The pathological mechanisms of sarcopenia are mainly muscle fiber damage and muscle protein metabolism imbalance. Muscle fiber damage involves motor neuron loss, neuromuscular junction blockade, decreased muscle fiber size and number, conversion of type II muscle fibers to type I, and intramuscular and intermuscular fat infiltration. Increased muscle protein degradation and decreased synthesis are mainly related to inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, excessive autophagy, and reduced satellite cell activation.

[0005] Those skilled in the art observed improvements in muscle mass, cognitive function, balance function, and balance confidence in both interventional groups compared to the control group and before treatment. Furthermore, the balance performance in the dual-task group was significantly better than that in the simple motor task group. Cognitive-motor dual-task exercises mobilize physical and cognitive reserves, realistically simulating scenarios of activity in complex environments that often lead to falls in elderly individuals with functional impairments. Therefore, regular training in dual-task exercises may improve physical function while simultaneously optimizing cognitive allocation and accelerating information processing, thereby enhancing responsiveness and reducing falls in patients with sarcopenia.

[0006] Balance training can help reduce the risk of falls in older adults with sarcopenia. Training includes standing with feet together, standing with one foot in front of the other, standing with both feet in front of the other, and standing on one leg. Static balance exercises should start with 10 seconds and gradually increase to 1-2 minutes. Exercise methods can be combined and varied during training to increase enjoyment. Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for comprehensive intervention in elderly sarcopenia recommend that balance exercises include: balance bikes, balance beams, plank exercises, and Pilates. Personalized exercise programs are suggested, such as resistance training twice a week (3-5 sets per session, 10-15 minutes per set) and aerobic / balance training 2-3 times a week (30 minutes per session). Safety precautions should be taken during exercise to avoid falls or fractures. Utility Model Content
