Effects of Fall Prevention Program Using Gym Ball on the Lower Limb Muscle Activity and Balance Ability of the Elderly
짐볼을 이용한 낙상예방 운동프로그램이 노인의 하지 근활성도와 균형에 미치는 영향
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the effects of incorporating gym ball exercises for fall prevention on lower limb muscle activity and balance in elderly individuals. Methods: Thirty elderly individuals residing in nursing homes were selected as study participants and randomly divided into experimental and control groups. Each group was comprised of 15 individuals. The experimental group performed fall prevention exercises using gym balls, whereas the control group performed only fall prevention exercises. Both groups were conducted for 6 weeks, 3 times a week, with each session lasting 50 minutes. We compared and analyzed the changes in muscle activity and balance within and between the groups. Results: When comparing the changes in lower limb muscle activity between groups before and after intervention, the experimental group showed significantly higher lower limb muscle activity after the intervention compared to the control group, with a statistically significant difference (p<. 001). Similarly, the experimental group showed significantly higher improvements in both static and dynamic balance abilities after the intervention than the control group, with statistically significant differences (p<. 001). Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated that incorporating Gym ball exercises into fall prevention programs is an effective method for enhancing lower limb muscle activity and balance in elderly individuals, thereby reducing fall risk.
