Sponsor's own description

Elderly people experience reduced strength, mass and muscle function throughout the aging process, and this negatively affects the functionality and quality of life of these individuals. A randomized clinical trial will be carried out with 30 volunteers who will be allocated into two groups (whole-body electrical stimulation or control). Whole-body electrical stimulation (WBS) sessions will take place twice a week, for 8 weeks, totaling 16 sessions. The primary outcomes of this study are functional mobility (Timed Up and Go test) and quality of life (EQ-5D questionnaire). Functional mobility will be assessed at baseline, after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment or follow-up. Quality of life will be assessed only at the beginning and end of 8 weeks.
