Brief Summary

The present study aims to examine the effects of Xbox Kinect exercise training program on the sleep quality, anxiety and functional capacity in older adults. Older adults were randomized into two groups. The XBOX group performed exercise with Xbox Kinect during 60 min, three times/week for 6 weeks. The CONTROL group did not exercise. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to evaluate sleep quality, anxiety symptoms by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the functional capacity was analyzed using following tests: Chair Stand Test, 8-Foot Up and Go Test, and 6-min Walk Test.

Conditions

Sleep; Anxiety; Aging; Exercise

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Change from Baseline Sleep Quality at 6 weeks

  Sleep Quality: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) assesses sleep quality over a 1-month time interval and provides quantitative and qualitative information on sleep. The questionnaire consists of 19 self-report items and other questions. The score ranges from 0 to 21 and scores \> 5 indicates the patient is a poor sleeper

  up to 24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Change from Baseline Anxiety at 6 weeks

  up to 24 weeks

• Change from Baseline strength at 6 weeks

  up to 24 weeks

• Change from Baseline agility/dynamic balance at 6 weeks

  up to 24 weeks

• Change from Baseline aerobic endurance at 6 weeks

  up to 24 weeks

Study Arms (2)

CONTROL group

NO INTERVENTION

The CONTROL group did not exercise.

XBOX group

EXPERIMENTAL

The XBOX group performed exercise for 60 min, three times/week, for 6 weeks, using the Xbox Kinect game "Your Shape Fitness evolved". This game was chosen because it simulates an environment with a variety of physical activities, in which the majority can be practiced by older adults. The activities were carried out individually. The game activities selected for the physical activity sessions were: 1) Zen-Develop it (stretching, balance and flexibility activities, similar to Yoga); 2) Pump it (to fill balls until they burst); 3) Wall Breaker (to break blocks, similar to boxing); 4) Kick it (soccer activity); 5) Hurricane (to lift the balls off the floor and not let them fall); 6) Stack in Up (balance activity).

Behavioral: Exercise in the XBOX kinect
