The DiaActive study: feasibility, safety and acceptability of a fall-preventive rhythm- and ADL-based exercise protocol for older adults with type 2 diabetes
The DiaActive protocol-combining rhythm-based, ADL-focused, and social components-was safe, feasible, and well accepted by older adults with T2D. High adherence, absence of adverse events, and increasing satisfaction support progression to a fully powered randomized controlled trial to assess clinical efficacy and long-term adherence.
