Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Each day of the week an exercise program of 45 minutes is given assigned to a specific aspect of the rehabilitation.
Monday: speed and coordination, including as many repetitions as possible in one minute for: quick arm movements in standing, quick trunk movements in sitting, quick weight transfers in standing, stepping.
Tuesday: functional training, including walking stairs, transfers, sitting to lying and reverse, moving objects in the room, functional fit-o-meter.
Wednesday: balance, including maximum weight transfers in all directions, exercises with reduced base of support, reaching.
Thursday: strength, including sit to stand with a weight belt, lifting a weight bimanual of the table, walking with ankle weights, arm extension with therapy bands.
Friday: testing or group activity. One week the following test will be taken: Berg Balance Scale, 10m walking test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test, knee extension and elbow extension strength with the microfet2, Basic-ADL and Geriatric Depression Scale.
