• Registration Number: NCT04687293
• Lead Sponsor: University of Liege

Brief Summary

Aim: The aim of the present study was to analyse the effects of training performed on a rotating, motorised platform (the Huber/SpineForce device from LPG Systems, Valence, France) intended to reduce the risk of falls.

Subjects: any patient 1) benefiting from a physiotherapy rehabilitation program at the CHU Liège, CNRF, Belgium; 2) presenting a pathological situation justifying functional rehabilitation with HUBER 360®; 3) presenting any pathology not constituting an exclusion criterion; 4) giving informed consent to research will be include in this 8-week interventional trial.

Design: randomized open-label trial. Patients will be randomized into the intervention group (HUBER trainig, 45 minutes of training, twice a week during 8 weeks) or in the control group (standard care).

Outcomes: the effect of the training will be measured on the Time-Up-and-Go test, on the Short-Physical performance battery test and on quality of life.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Risk of falls, in seconds	8 weeks	Measured with Timed-Up-and Go test

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Physical performance	8 weeks	Short Physical Performance Battery test (SPPB test). The test is scored from 0 (lower physical performance) to 12 (highest physical performance)
Utility score using the EuroQol- 5 Dimension questionnaire	8 weeks	Descriptive data from the 5 dimensions can be used to generate a health-related quality of life profile for the subject. The questionnaire is scored from 0 (worst health state imaginable) to 100 (best health state imaginable).
Quality of life, measured with the Short Form-36 questionnaire	8 weeks	SF-36 generic quality of life questionnaire. The score obtained from this questionnaire is composed with a Physcial component Scale (PMS) and a Mental component scale (MCS). Results are scored from 0 (worst quality of life) to 100 (best quality of life).
