Item Effects of Exercise on Physical Performances among Frail Older Adults: A Review Study(Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University, 2020) Sattha Prakobchai; Rungnapa Pongkiatchai; Sresuda Wongwiseskul; S. Prakobchai; Faculty of Nursing, Suan Dusit University, Bangkok, 10300, Thailand; email: sattha_pra@dusit.ac.thFrailty is a crucial concept in determining physiological reverses among older adults. Physical frailty can predict the vulnerability for community-dwelling older adults as the functional performance declines. Recently, nurses and health care professionals have implemented the strategies to enhance physical capacity among frail older adults. Even the clinical guidelines of physical activity and exercise recommendations are widely published, older adults still engage in a low level of physical exercise. It is notable that exercise intervention is effective way to prevent frailty. This review indicates that a combination of aerobic, resistance exercise, and multicomponent exercise can improve physical performance such as increase muscle strength, balance, muscle mass, gait speed and prevent falls. Frailty is a reversible condition. Therefore, encouraging older adults to perform physical exercise is needed to maintain physical functioning as well as promote quality of life. Nurses play a significant role in frailty recovering both in hospitals and in aged care facilities. © 2020, Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University.

Literature revealed that the majority of older adults possessed a low degree of health literacy, which was connected with ineffective management of health behaviours and these negative consequences. The purpose of this paper is to comprehend the significance of health literacy and clinical practice among elderly patients with chronic renal disease and their caregivers. Chronic kidney disease, health literacy, the significance of health literacy and self-management in chronic kidney disease and their caregivers, use in clinical practice, and a discussion of the outcomes of past studies are discussed. In conclusion, the significance of health literacy is resulting in improved health outcomes.Item Instructional Design: Under the Concept of Game Based Learning for Nursing Education(Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University, 2023) Sunida Choosang; Niratchada Chai-Ngam; Rungnapa Pongkiatchai; R. Pongkiatchai; Faculty of Nursing, Suan Dusit University, Bangkok, 10300, Thailand; email: rungnapa_pon@dusit.ac.thGame-based learning (GBL) is a method that motivates students to learn content in a fun way. Learners are motivated by challenge, fantasy, and curiosity in games. GBL provides learners with the opportunity to test the game and empower them to make decisions. The course content can be inserted into the minds of the learners through the game to help them develop and achieve higher learning outcomes. GBL can be used for both traditional classroom teaching and online teaching. This article presents information about game-based learning management. The concept of game-based learning and a review of the design elements of educational games are discussed. We then review the game development process and the implement of games in the classroom as well as assessing outcomes. Lastly, GBL trend for nursing education is discussed. © 2023, Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University.

Pongkiatchai; Faculty of Nursing, Suan Dusit University, Bangkok, 10300, Thailand; email: rungnapa_pon@dusit.ac.thThe study aimed to study the effect of the health literacy program on self-management related to food consumption among older adults with hypertension in the community. The study design was quasi-experimental study with pre and posttest groups. The participants consisted of 64 older adults with hypertension who were randomly assigned to an experimental and control group. Participants in experimental group received health education and six sessions of health literacy. Each session lasted 20-60 minutes within eight weeks. Control group received usual care and health education from health provider. self-administration questionnaire (nutrition literacy, food consumption pattern and self-management) was used to collect the data. Data were analyzed using independent t-test. Group reflection was analyzed using content analysis. Results showed that mean score of nutritional literacy, food consumption and self-management of the experiment group was significantly higher than the mean score of the control group (p-value <.001). Results from the reflection in the experimental group suggested some issues, including the understanding, access to information and applying knowledge. Participants suggested the methods to enhance health literacy for self-management on food consumption including providing knowledge, communication, sharing experiences and using photographic media. In sum, health literacy program can be used as a tool to enhance knowledge related to health. © 2022, Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University.
