Effects of a remote multicomponent training intervention on quality of life of older people: a randomized controlled clinical trial

ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess how remote multicomponent training group (MTG) influences the quality of life (QoL) among older individuals. Fifty-six participants (63 ± 2.93 years) were divided into two groups: the (MTG, n = 28) and the control group (CG, n = 28). The assessment of QoL used WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL-OLD. Data analysis employed Generalized Estimating Equations (ɑ= 0.05). The findings showed no significant differences in overall QoL or its domains when assessed using WHOQOL-BREF. However, WHOQOL-OLD revealed a noteworthy overall QoL enhancement (p = 0.049) in both groups. In conclusion, remote MTG was effective in enhancing QoL, particularly in domains associated with aging, such as Social Participation and Death and Dying.
