Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to assess differences among older patients demonstrating low STS performance in the 30 s-STS and/or the 5r-STS.

Methods: 30 s-STS and 5r-STS were used to assess lower limb muscle strength and function in older adults. Analysis involved 376 patients (≥ 65 years) from a geriatric outpatient clinic for fall assessment.

Results: The mean age of patients was 79.8 (± 6.1) years (67% female). In total, 40.6% had low STS performance with 9.3% presenting only low 30 s-STS, 9.8% only low 5r-STS, and 21.5% low STS performance in both tests. Patients with low STS performance in both tests had lower gait speed, were more often frail, and had more prior falls compared to patients with low STS performance in one test only.

Conclusion: The two STS tests are not interchangeable, and the use of both STS tests capture a wider range of physical abilities in mobility-limited older adults.

Clinical trial registration: NCT05795556.

BIOFRAIL研究的结果表明，同时应用30-s和5次重复的坐姿-站立测试，可以捕捉到行动不便的老年人的不同群体和更广泛的身体能力。

目的：我们旨在评估30秒STS和/或5r-STS表现较差的老年患者之间的差异。方法：采用30s - sts和5r-STS评估老年人下肢肌力和功能。分析了来自老年门诊的376例患者（≥65岁）进行跌倒评估。结果：患者平均年龄79.8（±6.1）岁，其中女性67%。总的来说，40.6%的人在两项测试中都表现出较低的STS性能，其中9.3%的人只有30秒STS低，9.8%的人只有5秒STS低，21.5%的人在两项测试中都表现出较低的STS性能。与仅在一项测试中STS表现较低的患者相比，两项测试中STS表现较低的患者步态速度较低，更容易虚弱，并且先前摔倒较多。结论：两种STS测试是不可互换的，两种STS测试的使用反映了行动受限老年人更广泛的身体能力。临床试验注册：NCT05795556。

期刊介绍： European Geriatric Medicine is the official journal of the European Geriatric Medicine Society (EUGMS). Launched in 2010, this journal aims to publish the highest quality material, both scientific and clinical, on all aspects of Geriatric Medicine. The EUGMS is interested in the promotion of Geriatric Medicine in any setting (acute or subacute care, rehabilitation, nursing homes, primary care, fall clinics, ambulatory assessment, dementia clinics..), and also in functionality in old age, comprehensive geriatric assessment, geriatric syndromes, geriatric education, old age psychiatry, models of geriatric care in health services, and quality assurance.
