Resistance versus Balance Training to Improve Postural Control in Parkinson's Disease: A Randomized Rater Blinded Controlled Study
BACKGROUND Reduced muscle strength is an independent risk factor for falls and related to postural instability in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The ability of resistance training to improve postural control still remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To compare resistance training with balance training to improve postural control in people with Parkinson's disease. METHODS 40 patients with idi...
متن کاملTai Chi in Parkinson’s Disease: A Preliminary Randomized, Controlled, and Rater-Blinded Study
Background: Given the limited benefits of current treatments for Parkinson’s disease (PD), interventions that might provide supplementary benefits would be of value. The traditional Chinese medicine practice of Tai Chi has been said to improve some aspects of PD, particularly imbalance. Methods: Preliminary randomized, controlled, and rater-blinded clinical trial of Tai Chi, focusing on its eff...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Treadmill Training on Balance Control in Elderly People: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Physical exercise would improve postural stability, which is an essential factor in preventing accidental fall among the elderly population. The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of treadmill walking on balance improvement among the elderly people. A total of 30 community dwelling older adults with a Berg Balance Scale score of 36-48 and the ability to walk without aid were cons...
متن کاملRandomized controlled trial protocol: balance training with rhythmical cues to improve and maintain balance control in Parkinson’s disease
BACKGROUND Postural instability is a particularly incapacitating disorder, whose loss of motor independence by Parkinson´s Disease (PD) patients marks a significant stage of disease onset. Evidence suggests that deficits in automatic motor control, sensory integration and attention are associated with the lack of balance in PD. Physiotherapy together with medication play an important role in th...
متن کاملTraining Mothers to Improve Gross Motor Skills in Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Objectives: The present study examined the effect of home-based handling training of mothers on the improvement of gross motor function of children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). Methods: In this randomized control trial, 42 children with CP (5-12 years old) were randomly assigned into the intervention and control groups. Data were collected using the Gross Motor Function Classification System and ...
