Elderly Clinical Trial
Official title:
Reducing Rate of Falls in Older People With the Improvement of Balance by Means of Vestibular Rehabilitation: Preliminary Study
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation to improve the balance in older people and reduce the number of falls, comparing three arms with different vestibular rehabilitation strategies (dynamic posturography exercises, optokinetic stimuli and exercises at home) and a control group.
Vestibular rehabilitation has been shown to be effective in compensating patients with
residual instability as a result of vestibular system disorders or Parkinson's disease. It is
also useful for treating lack of balance in the elderly (presbivertigo). However, there is no
systematic, controlled and prospective analysis of whether vestibular rehabilitation is
effective in reducing the number of falls in the elderly, or whether its effects in this age
group are temporary or persist over time.
This study compare vestibular rehabilitation with three different strategies (dynamic
posturography exercises, optokinetic stimuli and exercises at home) and a control group, in
people over 65 years. Balance tests are performed before vestibular rehabilitation and three
weeks, six months and one year after it. Number of falls are quantified one year after
vestibular rehabilitation.
