Technology-Assisted Physical Activity Interventions for Older People in Their Home-Based Environment: Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Technology-assisted physical activity interventions for older adults in their home-based environment have been used to promote physical activity. Previous research has reported that such interventions benefit body composition, aerobic fitness, cognitive abilities, and postural control, reducing the risk of falls and maintaining regular physical activity among the older population.

Objective

While previous reviews on technology-assisted physical activity interventions focused on health-related outcomes, this scoping review explores the characteristics of the technology in relation to the characteristics of populations, purpose of the activity, and usability in terms of adverse events, drop-outs, adherence, and user experience.
