Official title
Use of Tele-Exercise as an Alternative Delivery Channel for Translating an Evidence-Based Fall-Prevention Program Into Practice for Older Adults in West Virginia
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
West Virginia (WV) has a critical need for resources to reach more of its older adults with fall-prevention programming. The Tai Ji Quan: Moving for Better Balance® (TJQMBB) program is an evidence-based, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-approved, community-delivered, physical activity fall-prevention intervention for older adults. The program is efficacious and effective in reducing falls in older adults, and has been translated into clinical and community settings. Programs delivered in one setting; however, may not automatically translate to others. Using telehealth technology to deliver exercise classes (i.e. tele-exercise) is one alternative to the traditional, face-to-face, group exercise classes where the instructor and participants are in the same room. We propose delivering tele-TJQMBB to older adults using a computer, television, and the internet. This delivery mode will allow us to recruit instructors from any location (e.g., urban areas), and with possibly more experience, yet still reach older adults in communities without instructors.
