dc.description.abstract | This systematic review aimed to identify the physical/motor fitness tests for nursing home
residents and to examine their psychometric properties. Electronic databases were searched for
articles published between January 2005 and October 2021 using MeSh terms and relevant keywords.
Of the total of 4196 studies identified, 3914 were excluded based on title, abstracts, or because they
were duplicates. The remaining 282 studies were full-text analyzed, and 41 were excluded, resulting
in 241 studies included in the review. The most common physical component assessed was muscle
strength; 174 (72.2%) studies assessed this component. Balance (138 studies, 57.3%) and agility
(102 studies, 42.3%) were the second and third components, respectively, most widely assessed. In
this review, we also describe the most used assessment tests for each physical/motor component.
Some potentially relevant components such as manual dexterity and proprioception have been little
considered. There are few studies assessing the psychometric properties of the tests for nursing home
residents, although the data show that, in general, they are reliable. This review provides valuable
information to researchers and health-care professionals regarding the physical/motor tests used
in nursing home residences, helping them select the screening tools that could most closely fit their
study objectives. | es |
