Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
30-second Chair Stand Test (CST)-The number of sitting and standing for 30 seconds by standing test in a sitting position was recorded and averaged after three measurements.;Korean version of Berg Balance Scale (K-BBS)-14 categories with 0 points to 4 points and a total of 56 points. The higher the score, the better the balance ability.;Timed up and Go Test (TUG)-A method in which the subject is standing in a chair, with the measurer's starting signal, standing back at the target 3 meters in front of the chair and sitting back on the chair. The measurer measures the time of this process. 7-10 seconds is within the normal range, and if it is 30 seconds or more, it is considered a fall risk.;Falls Efficacy Scale (K-FES)-Numbers from 1 to 10 of 10 behavioral fears needed for daily life. If you feel fear of falling, 1 point, you are very confident 10 points, the range of the measurement ranges from 10 points to 100 points, the lower the score means more fear of falls.
