How ageing, inactivity, disease,
functional impairment and
disability affect bones, joints,
muscles, nerves, heart and
lungs….
Bones
Functions of the
Skeleton
Shape
Protection
Storage of minerals
Production of blood cells
Movement through joints
Knowledge
Base
Page 43
Possible changes to Bone
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:
 Reduced bone mineral density
 Increased risk of osteoporosis
 Loss in height
 Postural problems
What is Osteoporosis?
Skeletal disorder characterised
by low bone mass and
deterioration of bone
with increase in bone
fragility and susceptibility to fracture
(Consensus Department Conference 1993)
Bone becomes thinner and more fragile
Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis
40 years
60 years
70 years
JOINTS
Structure of a synovial joint
Knowledge
Base
Page 48
Possible changes to joints
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Less synovial fluid
Synovial fluid more viscous
Cartilage wear and tear
Reduced joint stability
Reduced range of movement
Ligament less flexible
Joints more stiff
MUSCLES
Structure of Skeletal
Muscle
Possible changes to Muscles
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:
Reduction in muscle mass
Reduction in number of muscle fibres
Increased connective tissue
Increased size of motor units
Reduced elasticity of tendons
Active, strength-trained
70 yr old
female
Sedentary
The same size difference is seen between 30 yr old and 80 yr old
(Adapted from Sipilä & Suominen
Muscle Nerve 1993;16:294)
Potential consequences
• Reduced:
– Power
– Strength
– Endurance
– Fine control
– Heat production
– Immune function
Nervous System
Knowledge
Base
Page 59
Nervous System
Possible changes to Nerves
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:
• Reduces number of nerves
• Reduced speed of transmission
• Slower information processing
Potential consequences:
Slower movement speed
Impaired short term memory
Reduced reaction time
Slower pace of learning
Reduced balance
Increased falls
Slower response to instructions
Poorer coordination
Reduced sight and hearing
HEART AND
LUNGS AND
BLOOD VESSELS
The Lungs
Knowledge
Base
Page 56
Gaseous Exchange in the
Alveoli
Diaphragm and
Intercostals Muscles
Possible changes to the lungs
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:






Decreased elasticity of the lungs
Weaker breathing muscles
Less flexible rib cage
Reduced gaseous exchange
Increased breathlessness
Reduced maximal inspiration and reduced expiration
Blood Vessels….
Arteries
Veins
Capillaries
Possible changes to the blood
vessels associated with ageing,
disability and inactivity:
• Increased furring and hardening of the arteries
• Increased blood pressure and risk of hypertension
• Reduced number of capillaries in muscles
• Reduced oxygen delivery to muscles, reduced
ability to sustain activity
ATHEROMA
The heart ….
Possible changes to the heart
associated with ageing, disability
and inactivity:
• Decreased cardiac muscle
• Decreased blood pumped out
• Decreased maximal heart rate
Consequences…
• Reduced ability to work at high intensity
•Tasks require greater percentage of max heart rate
• Reduced ability to sustain activity
