NCT ID: NCT05929118 Completed - Clinical trials for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

The Effect of Aquatic Rehabilitation on Knee Function in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Patients.

Start date: November 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the applicability and effectiveness of an aquatic rehabilitation training program with a conventional land-based rehabilitation program in terms of lower extremity biomechanics and knee function in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does aquatic rehabilitation accelerate the recovery of gait symmetry and muscle function in patients after ACLR? - Previous studies have not uncovered the training characteristics of aquatic rehabilitation, which allow for training movements that cannot be performed on land, and it is unknown whether these different training movement characteristics are more effective for patients with ACLR. Participants were randomly divided into an aquatic rehabilitation group (AR) and a land-based rehabilitation group (LR), and each group performed 70-90 minutes of training per session for a total of 6 sessions. This included warm-up activities, mobility training, strength training, functional exercises, and finishing activities. Each training session was conducted 1-2 days apart, 2-3 sessions per week, and the training was completed within 2-3 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT05713383 Not yet recruiting - Gait Clinical Trials

The Role of Perturbed Auditory Information for Self-motion in Gait

Start date: July 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

As people walk and interact with objects such as when opening a door, their movements make sounds. It is possible that these sounds are also used as feedback to stabilize and adapt movement. There is some evidence for such a connection between the auditory and motor systems in activities of daily living, yet the empirical work is insufficient because the role of the auditory system in movement is a relatively neglected topic. The objective of this study is to address this gap. The study will also evaluate the potential for improvements in movement stability and variability by restricting or augmenting the auditory feedback from the participants' footstep sounds.

NCT ID: NCT05690308 Completed - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Visual Perturbation Training to Reduce Fall Risk in People With Parkinson's Disease

Vesti-PD
Start date: December 20, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Falls during walking are common in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Fall risk can be attributed in part to the loss of automaticity in walking and an increased reliance on sensory cues, such as the input from the balance organ. In this project the investigators want to assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation training aiming to improve this vestibular input. The effects of a visual perturbation training in a virtual reality environment will be compared to conventional treadmill training.

NCT ID: NCT05475652 Active, not recruiting - Elderly Clinical Trials

The Influence of Manual Therapy Applied to the Cervical Spine in the Prevention of Balance Disorders in the Elderly

ManEq
Start date: February 4, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Falling is a major trauma that can occur with aging, leading to very significant psychological and physical health effects with financial and societal consequences. It is therefore essential to explore therapeutic treatments that can reduce this risk. Some recognized effective treatments exist, concerning in particular the re-education of the muscles of the lower limbs. However, to our knowledge, none of them focus on the cervical spine although the latter is located at an essential physiological crossroads. Manual therapy, which has already demonstrated its impact on pain and balance parameters in the elderly, could be a painless and non-invasive tool of choice in addressing this problem.

NCT ID: NCT05462977 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Rhythmically Entrained Exercise in Community-Dwelling Older Adults

REECO
Start date: May 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro conduct a single-arm intervention trial to investigate the efficacy of a music-based group exercise program for community-dwelling older adults. Up to forty participants will be recruited to participate in a music-based light-to-moderate intensity group exercise program for 20 weeks (30 - 40 min/day, up to 6 days/week), which is designed for older adults with or without functional limitations to exercise with chairs for the improvement of aerobic capacity, upper and lower body strength, and balance control at a gradually increasing pace. During the exercise sessions, participants will be trained to move in time with music playlists in synchronous tempos. Primary outcomes are cognitive performance, mobility, and health-related quality of life measured before and after the intervention. Secondary outcomes are adherence to the exercise program as a potential mediator of the treatment.

NCT ID: NCT05449730 Completed - Balance Clinical Trials

An Investigation of the Gait Performance and Balance in Yoga Instructors

Start date: June 22, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Yoga is a popular exercise and thought to be beneficial to many aspects such as mood, flexibility and balance, etc. Gait performance is a indicator of overall health and functional status. This study aims to investigate whether or not yoga instructors have a more symmetric gait pattern and better balance ability than healthy people without experience of performing Yoga. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) will be used to gather data related to gait symmetry and single leg stance balance. A comparison by four performance indexes related to gait symmetry and balance will be made to quantify the potential advantages of yoga practice.

NCT ID: NCT05404126 Active, not recruiting - Balance Clinical Trials

Balance and Gait in Hearing Impaired Children

Balance
Start date: May 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators balance and balance related problems and exercise programs should be handled multi-dimensionally. In this study, the investigators' aim is to investigate the effect of dual task-oriented education with stroboscopic glasses on balance, functional mobility and general walking parameters in children with hearing impairment, despite conventional balance exercises. The study will be started when the consent form which prepared in accordance with the ethical committee conditions, explained and approved to all participants and their families. Participants aged 7-12 years, who have not undergone cochlear implant surgery, who can walk independently, have a hearing threshold of 75 decibels (dB) and above, and are diagnosed with congenital bilateral sensorineural hearing impairment will be included in the study. Hearing impaired children who have physical, visual impairment, lack of cooperation for the application and have any neurological problems (other than sensorineural hearing loss) or orthopedic problems that may affect their balance will not be included. Children who meet the inclusion criteria will be divided into three groups by block randomization method; as control (Group 1), conventional exercise balance (Group 2), dual task-oriented stroboscopic visual training group (Group 3) and a healthy control group (Group 4) without any disability will form the fourth group. Only assessments and scales will be applied to the participants in Group 1 and Group 4 at the beginning of the study and at the end of 12 weeks. Group 2 and Group 3 will be included in the exercise program twice a week for 40 minutes for 12 weeks. Conventional balance exercises are planned to be done in groups, and other trainings are planned with one-on-one therapist. Before starting exercise training, demographic characteristics such as dB values (specified in the health reports of), age (years), height (cm), body weight (kg) of the children included in the study will be recorded. At the beginning of the exercise training and at the end of the 12-week training; balance, functional mobility and gait, fall history and fear of falling, quality of life, hand-eye coordination will be evaluated. This study is important in terms of being an example for researches to be carried out for the hearing impaired or other disability groups and contributing to the exercise programs of the trainers working in this field.
