Cerebellar Ataxia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of High Intensity Stepping Training on Gait in Patients With Ataxia
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of high intensity stepping training on gait outcome measures in patients with cerebellar ataxia, to identify the correlations between gait outcome measures and measures of ataxia and balance in individuals with cerebellar ataxia and to determine differences in response to high intensity stepping training based off of diagnosis.

Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - diagnosis of ataxia who were admitted to The Institute for Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR) Texas Medical Center (TMC )Inpatient or TIRR Kirby Glenn Outpatient. - pathology that primarily affects the brain/ cerebellum including degenerative diseases, stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), posterior fossa tumor, and multiple sclerosis (MS) - ambulatory at initial evaluation or will have functional ambulation goals at initial evaluation (as noted by 10 meter walk test and 6 minute walk test measures documented as 0) - chronicity of injury will be of at least 1 month or greater Exclusion Criteria: - diagnoses that may have cerebellar involvement but without cerebellar ataxia as a principal impairment such as autism, down syndrome, schizophrenia, etc - non ambulatory or who are not able to participate in high intensity stepping training due to cardiac involvement (such as cardiac rehabilitation parameters) or due to orthopedic limitations (such as weight bearing parameters) |

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Walking speed in meters per second as assessed by the 10 Meter Walk Test(10MWT) | Participant is asked to walk a distance of 10 meters and the speed is measured by dividing the distance covered by the time taken | Baseline, 3 weeks | |
Primary | Aerobic capacity and endurance assessed by the the six minute walking test (6MWT) | Participants will be asked to walk as far as possible for 6 minutes.Longer distance walked shoes better outcome | Baseline, 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Ataxia as assessed by the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) | It has eight categories with accumulative score ranging from 0 (no ataxia) to 40 (most severe ataxia). | Baseline, 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Ability to balance as assessed by the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) | It is a 14 item list with each item consisting of a five-point ordinal scale ranging from 0 to 4, with 0 indicating the lowest level of function and 4 the highest level of function , for a maximum score of 56, higher score indicating better balance. | Baseline, 3 weeks |
