This application facilitates the measurement of objective functional impairment (OFI) by the use of the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Test results are displayed in seconds, as well as in T-scores, standardized for age and sex. OFI has been demonstrated to be a valuable additional metric in the comprehensive evaluation of patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease. An improvement of 3.4 seconds on the TUG test has been identified as clinically meaningful improvement of OFI.

Vivifrail App está dirigida a monitores, preparadores físicos, profesionales en el ámbito de la salud, personal médico y no médico de residencias de ancianos, así como a profesionales en el ámbito de las Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte, Enfermería y Fisioterapia encargados del cuidado de mayores de 70 años. Esta App permite clasificar a las personas mayores, basándose en las conclusiones realizadas en el marco del proyecto Erasmus+ denominado Vivifrail (www.vivifrail.com), en función de su riesgo de pérdida de capacidad funcional, dependencia y riesgo de caídas. Una vez el anciano ha sido categorizado, la App propone la realización de un programa individualizado de entrenamiento físico multicomponente para la prevención de la fragilidad y caídas en mayores de 70 años (© Mikel Izquierdo. Programa multicomponente de ejercicio físico para la prevención de la fragilidad y el riesgo de caídas, 2017) El programa de entrenamiento físico multicomponente está basado en una serie de ejercicios que permitirán, dependiendo del nivel de capacidad funcional del anciano (limitación grave, limitación moderada y limitación leve), y permitirá desarrollar: • La fuerza y la potencia, tanto de brazos como de piernas. • El equilibrio y la marcha, con el fin de evitar las caídas. • La flexibilidad. • La resistencia mediante ejercicios de cardiovascular. Siguiendo estos sencillos programas, un anciano puede mejorar la capacidad funcional, así como evitar el síndrome de fragilidad y riesgo de caídas. Esta App permite: - Trabajar con varios ancianos. - Cribado de la fragilidad y riesgo de caídas. - Seguimiento de programa de ejercicio físico multicomponente. - Realizar correctamente los ejercicios gracias a sus completas y sencillas explicaciones, así como a los vídeos que acompañan cada ejercicio."
