Popis: | 106 The number of dementia patients continues to rise at a rate of 3.2 seconds per new case. With the global population distribution, 4.9 million in Asia accounted for 49% of the world’s population. The aging of Taiwan's population has caused the number of demented people to continue to increase by multiples. It is estimated that there will be 1 dementia for every 13 people aged over 65 in Taiwan in 2017. patient. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of short-term memory, concentration, and physical functioning on cognitively impaired older adults after intervention in qigong exercises. In this study, repeated measurement experimental design was used. Subjects were assigned randomly using computer blocks. Experimental group (n=35) was given interventional station pile qigong exercises. Control group (n=31) maintained general activities. Before the measure, pre-test, neuropsychological cognition and muscle strength, endurance and cardiorespiratory fitness were measured every month for 3 months. The measurement data was analyzed by SPSS 22.0. The results showed that after interventional measures of staging qigong, there were significant differences in muscle strength, muscle endurance, and cardiopulmonary fitness between the experimental group at the posterior 2 months and the 3 months after the survey.. In the short-term memory cognitive block, the hit and focus hit rates of the experimental group and the control group were increased from the first month to the third month after the intervention, and the experimental results were better than that in the control group. There are significant differences in interaction with time. The conclusion of this study shows that the training of standing qigong exercises can improve cognitive short-term memory and concentration, and increase the physiological function of the elderly. |
