Abstract Background Aging is marked by a progressive rise in chronic diseases with an impact on social and healthcare costs. Physical activity (PA) may soothe the inconveniences related to chronic diseases, has positive effects on the quality of life and biological rhythms, and can prevent the decline in motor functions and the consequent falls, which are associated with early death and disability in older adults. Methods We randomized 120 over-65 males and females into groups of similar size and timing and will give each either moderate physical activity or cultural and recreational activities. Being younger than 65 years, inability to participate in physical activity for any medical reason, and involvement in a massive program of physical exercise are the exclusion criteria. The primary outcome measures are: quality of life, walking speed, and postural sway. Participants are tested at baseline, post-treatment, and 6-month (24 weeks) and 12-month (48 weeks) follow-ups. Discussion This study aims at improving the quality of life, wellness, and cognitive functioning in the elderly through a low-cost affordable program of moderate physical activity. Given the growing aging of the world population and the social and economic burden of disability in the elderly, our results might have a major impact on future practices. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03858114. Registered on 28 February 2019.

Indonesia mengalami transisi demografis menuju struktur penduduk tua yang tidak hanya berdampak pada bidang kesehatan, namun juga pada berbagai aspek kehidupan. Kompleksitas proses penuaan dan kerentanan lansia menderita beberapa penyakit kronik, menyebabkan konsep “sakit vs sembuh” maupun indikator angka kesakitan sulit mencerminkan status kesehatan dan keberhasilan program kesehatan lansia. Walaupun digunakan untuk mengevaluasi keberhasilan terapi pada pasien dengan penyakit kronis tertentu, namun penggunaan pengukuran kualitas hidup sebagai indikator status kesehatan komprehensif pada masyarakat lansia masih sangat terbatas.  Mini survei deskriptif potong lintang ini adalah studi percontohan, dilakukan untuk memberikan gambaran preliminari perbandingan hasil penilaian kualitas hidup dengan penilaian kesehatan secara umum, dan keterkaitan antar aspek-aspek kehidupan lansia.  Sebanyak 28 responden lansia di Jakarta Barat, direkrut dengan metode convenient, mengisi kuesioner kualitas hidup lansia secara daring.  Dari 28 responden, 57,1% menilai tingkat kualitas hidupnya baik (skor 4), rerata skor tertinggi pada aspek spiritual (81,9), sedangkan rerata skor terendah pada aspek kesehatan fisik (64,7).  Didapatkan kecenderungan hasil penilaian tingkat kualitas hidup lebih baik (skor lebih tinggi) daripada tingkat kesehatan secara umum. Aspek kesehatan fisik menunjukkan korelasi paling kuat dengan aspek kesehatan mental (r=0,84; p<0,001), dan diikuti dengan aspek lingkungan (r=0,75; p<0,001).  Pengukuran kualitas hidup diharapkan dapat memberikan pemahaman komprehensif tentang status kesehatan lansia. Indonesia is undergoing a demographic transition towards an older population structure, which not only impacts on the health sector, but also on various aspects of life.  The complexity of the aging process and the vulnerability of the elderly to suffer from several chronic diseases, make the concept of "sick vs cured" and indicator of morbidity difficult to reflect the health status and the success of elderly’s health programs. Although it is used to evaluate the success of therapy in patients with certain chronic diseases, the use of quality of life as an indicator of comprehensive health status in the elderly community is still very limited. This cross-sectional descriptive mini survey was a pilot study, conducted to provide a preliminary description comparing the results between the quality of life and general health assessments, and the correlation between lives’s aspects of the elderly. A total of 28 elderly respondents in West Jakarta conveniently recruited, filled out an online quality of life questionnaire. Of the 28 respondents, 57.1% rated their quality of life as good (score 4), the spiritual aspect recevied the highest average score (81.9), whilst the physical health aspect received the lowest average score (64.7). There is a tendency for the quality of life level to be better (higher score) than the general health level.  Physical health aspects showed the strongest correlation with mental health aspects (r=0.84; p<0.001), followed by environmental aspects (r=0.75; p<0.001). Measuring the quality of life is expected to provide a comprehensive understanding of the elderly’s health status.
