简要总结
Burn injury as well as diabetes mellitus (DM) induce physical functional and psychological impairments. Lower limb burn involving Foot are still a challenging heath condition because of its important sensory role. Balance is disturbed either in patients with lower limb burn injury or diabetic patients. This study aime to compare between the effects whole body vibrational training and Yoga exercises on postural balance, and Activities-specific Balance Confidence in in type II diabetic Patients with foot burn
详细描述
Thirty eight diabetic patients (17 male, 21female) with foot burn injury, with their age ranged from 40 to 55 years. They will randomly assigned into two equal groups. Group (A) will receive low vibrational training in the form of whole body vibration for 8 weeks (n=19), while group (B) the control group for 8 weeks (n=19) in addition both groups will receive their routine medical care and physical therapy rehabilitation including balancing exercises. Dynamic balance will be evaluated through Biodex balance system (BBS);and balance confidence will be measured by the Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC) before the starting and after the end of treatment for all patients in both groups

结局指标
主要结局
Dynamic balance assessment
时间窗: Change from Baseline at balance scores at 8 weeks
Biodex Balance System was used to measure the dynamic balance of each patient in both groups (A and B) before and after 8 weeks of treatment. The system has a movable balance platform that permits about 20◦ tilt in 360◦ range, and is interfaced with computer software for objective balance assessment. It measures the ability of the patient to control the platform's tilting angle, which is quantified as a variation from the center, as well as the deflection degree over time at different stability levels
次要结局
- The Activities-specific Balance(Change from Baseline at Activities-specific Balance scores at 8 weeks)
