Abstract

Abstract:

China is currently experiencing rapid population aging，leading to a significant expansion of the elderly demographic. This aging process is accompanied by cognitive，motor，and sensory function decline and diseases，resulting in an increasing number of elderly individuals with disabilities. To address this challenge，extended reality technology offers a personalized，motivating，and human-computer interactive training environment that can effectively tackle the obstacles hindering active health and disability prevention in the elderly，such as inadequate infrastructure and motivation. This review summarized the current research status and effectiveness of extended reality technology in preventing disability among the elderly. Additionally，the review discusses the limitations and future prospects of extended reality technology in the context of elderly disability prevention，aiming to provide guidance for preventing disability in the elderly and promoting healthy aging.

Key words: Disability Prevention, Aged, Extended Reality Technology, Nursing Care, Review

摘要：

国内老年人口规模大，老龄化速度快，增龄伴随的认知、运动、感官功能下降及疾病等问题日益突出，残疾老年人数量持续增加。扩展现实技术为老年人提供了个性化的、激励的、人机交互的多重任务训练环境，可应对基础设施缺乏和动力不足两大阻碍老年人主动健康的因素，维护老年人功能和预防残疾。该文总结了扩展现实技术在老年残疾预防中的应用现状和效果，并分析现阶段研究与应用中的不足，提出了展望，以为预防老年人残疾提供参考。
