Sponsor's own description
In this assessor-blinded, randomized, controlled trial our primary aim is to quantify the effects of a six-month rhythm-based multitask training (RYMA) intervention on fall rates collected over 12 months, compared to continuation of regular activity schedule, among community-dwelling older adults (≥70 years). This assessor-blinded, randomized, controlled trial aim is to quantify the effects of six-month rhythm-based multitask training (RYMA) on fall rates collected over 12 months, compared to continuation of regular activity schedule, among community-dwelling older adults (≥70 years). A sample size calculation estimates that 126 older community-dwelling older adults (≥70 years) are needed. Following baseline measures, the recruited participants will randomly be assigned to either the RYMA or the control group. The participants in the RYMA group will be assigned to a single weekly one-hour session for six months, while the control group will be encouraged to continue their regular activity schedule. Assessment of the primary outcome, fall rates, will be conducted continuously in 12 months from the beginning of training using monthly fall calendars. When a fall is reported in the fall calendar, a telephone interview will be conducted to assess circumstances and consequences (e.g. fall-related fractures, fall-related hospital admissions) of the falls. Moreover, assessment of physical, cognitive, and social-psychological surrogate outcomes will be made at baseline, six, and 12 months.
