ABSTRACT
Purpose:
The purpose was to investigate an adapted pre-exercise screening tool to evaluate musculoskeletal injury in elderly women before starting a resistance training (RT) program, and to verify whether the tool could detect subjects not eligible for RT research on the basis of the RT program injury rate
Methods:
Overall, 74 subjects participated in an orthopaedic evaluation by a certified physical therapist. History was taken of injury, dysfunction and related musculoskeletal diseases, surgeries, fractures, and falls. A series of tests was applied to identify potential risks and injuries.
Results:
Owing to history of falls and fractures and poor mobility and performance in physical function tests, 14 patients were excluded. The most common deficits were: rotator cuff tendinopathy (n = 2), knee osteoarthritis (n = 3), both rotator cuff tendinopathy and knee osteoarthritis (n = 3), lumbar discopathy (n = 2), cervicalgia (n = 1), back pain sciatica (n = 1), rotator cuff injury (n = 1), wrist and knee pain (n = 1). The main joints affected were: knees (n = 7), shoulders (n = 6), lumbar spine (n = 5), thoracic spine (n = 1), and cervical spine (n = 2). Overall, 60 elderly women started the RT program, while 39 had an adherence of > 90%.
Conclusions:
The adapted tool was effective in recruiting subjects, who had a lower injury rate during RT. It helped to identify musculoskeletal dysfunction and improved safety and adherence outcomes in elderly women.
