Fall Clinical Trial
Official title:
Reducing Rate of Falls in Older People With the Improvement of Balance by Means of Vestibular Rehabilitation (ReFOVeRe Study): Optimizing Costs
The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation developed using computerized dynamic posturography or a mobile posturographic system with vibrotactile stimulation, to improve the balance in older people and reduce the number of falls.
Accidental falls, particularly in the elderly, are one of the most important socio-healthcare
problems of ageing western societies. Many factors condition and favour falls; one of them is
old age, usually related to a decline in sensorial functions and worsening of balance
Vestibular rehabilitation has been shown to be effective to improve balance and reduce the
number of falls in older people. Previous studies have demonstrated that exercises in
computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) are more effective than other vestibular
rehabilitation strategies in this group of age. But CDP is very expensive and not widespread.
It would be important to minimize cost of posturographic vestibular rehabilitation.
This study compare vestibular rehabilitation with two different posturographic devices (CDP
and mobile posturographic system with vibrotactile stimulation), in people over 65 years.
Additionally, we try to assess whether the reduction in the number of vestibular
rehabilitation sessions (five) leads to an improvement in balance and in reducing the number
of falls similar to those obtained with ten sessions.
