Older Adults’ Perspectives on Participating in a Synchronous Online Exercise Program: Qualitative Study

Older Adults’ Perspectives on Participating in a Synchronous Online Exercise Program: Qualitative Study

Recently, there has been a greater uptake of asynchronous and synchronous programming due to the COVID-19 pandemic [14-16]. A scoping review by Dagenais et al [16] described the nature and extent of the existing literature on online exercise programming among older adults and found 17 studies using asynchronous (9/17, 53%), synchronous (5/17, 29%), or both asynchronous and synchronous programming (3/17, 18%).

Asynchronous Versus Synchronous Screening for Depression and Suicidality in a Primary Health Care System: Quality Improvement Study

However, the dramatic shift from direct face-to-face patient care to remote care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic rendered synchronous clinic-based screening programs insufficient. Meanwhile, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the prevalence of symptoms of depressive disorders nearly quadrupled [20]. This dramatic increase in depressive symptoms during the pandemic further heightened the urgency to adapt and optimize screening processes [21].

Relevant literature has multiple confounds, including the fact that the relative impact of live (synchronous) and recorded (asynchronous) digital mindfulness training for the workplace is completely unknown. Multiple systematic reviews have demonstrated solid evidence that mindfulness training has a positive impact on stress and other indicators of mental health [12-16].

Effectiveness of Live Health Professional–Led Group eHealth Interventions for Adult Mental Health: Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials

Interventions were excluded if they were not delivered in a live, synchronous group format and were not delivered entirely on the web or by telephone. Peer-led groups and web-based groups led by individuals without a recognized certificate or degree related to the intervention were also excluded. Studies that examined community-dwelling adults aged ≥18 years with self-reported or physician-diagnosed mental health, substance use, or bereavement concerns were included.
