简要总结
This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of adding whole-body vibration training to a conventional exercise program on postural stability and pain in painful women with hypermobility spectrum disorder. Participants are randomly allocated to conventional exercise or conventional exercise plus whole-body vibration groups and complete a 6-week supervised intervention program.
详细描述
Participants were randomly allocated to two groups. One group received a conventional exercise program consisting of proprioceptive, core stabilization, and resistance exercises, while the other group received the same conventional exercise program combined with whole-body vibration exercises. Both groups participated in the exercise program for six weeks. All exercise sessions were conducted at the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Koç University Hospital, under the supervision of a resident physician. Participants were evaluated before and after the six-week intervention by a blinded outcome assessor who was unaware of the participants' group allocation.

研究组 & 干预措施
Conventional Exercise Group
Participants allocated to this arm received a supervised conventional exercise program consisting of proprioceptive, core stabilization, and resistance exercises for six weeks. Exercise sessions were conducted at the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Koç University Hospital, under the supervision of a resident physician.
干预措施: Conventional Exercise Program (Other)
Conventional Exercise Plus Whole-Body Vibration Group
Participants allocated to this arm received the same supervised conventional exercise program consisting of proprioceptive, core stabilization, and resistance exercises, with the addition of whole-body vibration exercises. The intervention was continued for six weeks. Exercise sessions were conducted at the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Koç University Hospital, under the supervision of a resident physician.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Posterolateral Reach Score of the Star Excursion Balance Test at 6 Weeks
时间窗: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention
Dynamic postural stability was assessed using the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT). The posterolateral reach score was calculated by normalizing the maximum posterolateral reach distance to lower-limb length and expressing the value as a percentage. Higher scores indicate better dynamic postural stability. The change from baseline to the end of the 6-week intervention was evaluated.
