The control group received no specific intervention. Voluntary step execution under single and dual task conditions was recorded at baseline and post intervention (Week 12).Results: After intervention between-group comparison revealed significant differences for initiation time of forward steps under dual task conditions (U = 9, P = 0.034, r = 0.55) and backward steps under dual task conditions (U = 10, P = 0.045, r = 0.52) in favor of the intervention group, showing altered stepping levels in the intervention group compared to the control group.Conclusion: A cognitive-motor intervention based on strength and balance exercises with additional dance video gaming is able to improve voluntary step execution under both single and dual task conditions in older adults.Keywords: fall prevention, exercise, dance, video gamePichierri GCoppe ALorenzetti SMurer Kde Bruin EDDove Medical Pressarticlefall preventionexercisedancevideo gameGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 7, Pp 175-184 (2012) |
