Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The home exercise program consists of vestibulookular reflex stimulating exercises, lower extremity somatosensory system training, static and dynamic balance exercises
Thanks to the receivers under the Neurocom balance master platform, the data of the center of gravity is transferred to the system and visual feedback is provided. Qualitative information reflects progression during static and dynamic postural exercises of the patient. To correct the load distribution, it is necessary to move the cursor to the specified targets in the exercises. The degree of difficulty of training can be increased by increasing the distance between the targets, reducing the time required to reach the targets, changing foot positions or adding upper extremity activity.
Elderly individuals in the square step exercise group will perform step exercises on 2.5x1.0 m thin cushions divided into 40 equal parts. Square step exercises include exercises that include anterior, posterior, lateral and diagonal directions of increasing difficulty. The order of the training program is at four different levels and is organized according to small, basic, regular and advanced levels.
