| description | Objective:To evaluate the effect of <italic>Health Qigong</italic>-<italic>Baduanjin</italic> on the balance function of college students.Methods:A total of 222 college students from Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were recruited and randomly allocated into <italic>Baduanjin</italic> or control group with a ratio of 1: 1. Participants in <italic>Baduanjin</italic> group were gathered to receive a 12-week <italic>Baduanjin</italic> training (1 hour per day and 5 days per week) during intervention period, while the control group received no special intervention. Follow-up period lasted 12 week after intervention period. Both groups received no intervention during follow-up period. The balance function was evaluated at baseline, at the end of 12-week intervention (at the 13th week of the study), and after the 12-week follow-up period (during the 25th week of the study).Results:The opened eyes and closed eyes indexes showed no differences between the two groups at baseline. At the end of the intervention period, the Opened Eyes Standard Deviation in <italic>Baduanjin</italic> group was significantly lower than control group (<italic>P</italic><0.05). However, the differences in balance function indexes were not significant between the two groups after follow-up period.Conclusion:12-week <italic>Health Qigong</italic>-<italic>Baduanjin</italic> could have a positive effect for college students on balance function, but long term effect was not observed. |
