[Purpose] To clarify efficacy of the test for independent walking using our convalescent rehabilitation ward. [Subjects and methods] Subjects were 178 stroke patients who had hospitalized in our convalescent rehabilitation ward from December 2009 to May 2011. 64 patients (35 male, 29 female, average age 66.7±14.4) of those who were able to achieve independent walking by our original test protocol participated in this study. The test includes 8 specific items, which assume some situations of falls while walking. In order to obtain permission of walk alone in the ward, it is necessary to pass this test. Nurses perform assessment of each items for through 3 days, consecutively, then a Rehabilitation doctor allows the patients to walk alone. We used passing rate, days to pass the test and proportion of falls as index of efficacy. [Result] 56 patients (87.5%) achieved independent walking, 51.8% of these patients passed the test less than 4 days. Proportion of falls after independent walking was 19.6% (11 patients, 17 falls) including 1 patient (1.8%) who had femoral neck fracture. [Discussion] It is reported that falls in patients walk independently with cane or walker in convalescent rehabilitation ward was 15.6% by research among multi facilities, which is similar to our result. We concluded that our test for independent walking is efficient of its convenience and eliminates certain risk of falls in stroke patients after independent walking.

The purpose of this research is to find out if there is a relationship between children's mind and everyday-life actions centered on playing.A questionnaire was handed out to the students above grade 3 and their parents of I school (Kanagawa prefecture) and K school (Nagano prefecture) on the children's everyday-life and their mind. The results were sorted out by sex and place into four groups: I school male, K school male, I school female, and K school female. Considering the difference in place and sex, the results were analyzed using the quantification theory type III and the relationships were examined.The patterns of children's everyday-life activities centered on playing was similar in each group even though the numbers of each activity differed among each place. The patterns were simplified to “playing inside⁄outside” “many⁄few friends” “contact⁄no contact with media” “yes⁄no conflicts”. The change in pattern according to grade was seen in all groups except for boys of K school. Through examinations of activity pattern and mind, the following relations were identified; “self-evaluations on exercise,” “self-evaluations on health,” “the level of irritation,” and “frequency of outbreak⁄strike.” From the results, there was no simple relation between the place children play (in⁄out) and their mind such as irritation and outbreak. This shows that when dealing with children's mind and body, it is effective to observe children's general everyday-life on a wide range scale.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the evidence of spa therapy, as well as spa effects, on health promotion, and to discuss the proper applications of spa to leisure activities that are focused on fitness. A relatively small number of highly evidence-graded studies, such as randomized controlled trials (RCTs), were identified from a literature search, and many had problems in methodology. Results showed that aquatic exercises conducted in hot water, including hot spa, obviously alleviated pain in locomotorium diseases. However, few RCTs are currently available concerning other diseases, and consequently, there is no evidence on aquatic exercise efficacy in those diseases. An increasing number of people enjoy leisure activities, particularly hot spa bathing, primarily for fitness. Obviously, hot spa has pain-relieving effects on locomotorium diseases, which are prevalent in middle-aged or elderly people. Therefore, hot spa bathing, as well as a change of air, and other complex factors associated with hot spa visits, are expected to promote health. It is hoped that people will learn more about hot spa, and enjoy it as a regular leisure activity.

The purpose of this pilot observational study is to clarify the relationship between the hot environment of a long pile artificial turf and dehydration of soccer players. The study was carried out on the Setagaya campus field of Tokyo University of Agriculture with long pile artificial turf (hereinafter referred to as artificial turf) during the period from August 15, 2012 to October 26, 2012. Measurements were conducted every day when it was not raining and were cancelled when it rained. Measurements were taken a total of 30 times: 12 times in August, 10 times in September, and 8 times in October. The following items were measured: 1. The surface temperature of the artificial turf; 2. The temperature, humidity and wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) at a height of 50 cm and 160 cm above the artificial turf; 3. The difference in body weight (the amount of dehydration). The surface temperature of the artificial turf during the day in the summer in Tokyo was usually greater than 60°C. In addition, those days when the WBGT was 31°C or higher, which meant there should be in principle cessation of exercise, accounted for about half of the total, which was greater than the observed record in Tokyo. There was a significant positive correlation between the surface temperature of the artificial turf, the WBGT, and the amount of dehydration. The amount of perspiration and the amount of dehydration increased as the temperature increased when exercising on the artificial turf in the summer. Therefore, it is necessary to promote heat acclimatization while monitoring the WBGT. Also, the results suggested that there is a need for more frequent hydration and for measures to prevent low-temperature burn on the soles of the feet when the temperature is high.

The aims of this research were to determine medical and other expenses (transportation fees, purchase of medical supplies or equipment) from being hospitalized or attending a hospital due to fall-related accidents and to determine the effects of such falls on labor productivity and social activity.First, total medical expenses and self-paid expenses were evaluated for 7 elderly participants over the age of 65 who were hospitalized or attended an orthopedic surgery at Hospital A in Tokyo. Second, a telephone interview was conducted on 21 persons above the age of 65 who had fall-related injuries in Kitamimaki Village (Nagano Prefecture), from May 2000 to July 2001. Questions concerned the circumstance of the fall, type and location of the injury, degree of physical and mental sequelae, influence on labor productivity and social activity, conditions of hospitalization and attending a hospital (transportation and frequency), and purchases for medical supplies, etc.Self-paid costs from hospitalization for fractures were 1,200yen per day for cases without surgery and 1,500yen to 3,000yen per day for cases with surgery (depending on surgery method and number of hospitalization days).Although a large variance was observed, average of total costs without medical expenses were 15,385yen, transportation expenses were 12,714yen, and purchases were 2,671yen. Transportation cost 409yen per visit; usage of a self-owned car was less costly than use of a taxi or bus. The influence on labor productivity was mostly on housework. Only 4 cases (19%) reported limitations on social activity; these were absence from meetings or sport lessons. However, physical and mental sequelae were observed in 8 cases (38%) with throbbing pain, movement limitations, and fear of falling.The amount of therapy costs and other self-paid expenses from fall-related injuries were low but medical expenses are high. Results revealed the necessity of fall prevention programs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between fall and performance under multiple-task condition. Subjects were 30 elderly people (12 faller and 18 non-faller). The motor performance when changing the difficulty of a gradual short-term memory task was evaluated. The relation between the difficulty of a task and ease of a fall was investigated using two-way analysis of variance. By the fall group, when the difficulty of the short-term memory task increased, the motor performance decrease. However, by the non-fall group, the motor performance was maintained regardless of the difficulty of a short-term memory task. These results suggested that short-term memory under multiple-task condition had influenced the fall in elderly people.
