Description

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of body sway after standing up from a chair in the elderly population. The 275 residents participated. The mean age of the subjects was 65.1 years. All subjects signed an informed consent statement prior to participating in this study. All subjects were able to stand up from a chair independently. Subjects were asked to stand on the stabilometer without using their hands from a seated position with the knee joint at 90 degrees. Results demonstrate that from the medial-lateral data of the stabilometer after standing up, X-MdPF in the elderly subjects significantly smaller values compared with young subjects and X-area in the elderly subjects significantly larger values compared with young subjects. From the anterior-posterior data of the stabilometer after standing up, X-area in the elderly subjects significantly smaller values compared with young subjects. The correlation between Y-MdPF and age was not significantly.
