简要总结
Children with Down syndrome often present with problems of posture & balance and mobility. Balance training is an important component of physical activity interventions, with growing evidence that it can be beneficial for children with DS.
Objective: To determine the effect core stability exercises and balance training in postural control among Down syndrome.
详细描述
This study was a randomized clinical trail. Children with Down Syndrome were determined on inclusion & exclusion criteria. Children with Down syndrome were arbitrarily allocated into two groups with ages ranged from 5 to 17 years. The sample size was 20 patients. They were assigned randomly into two groups. Group 1 received balance training and Group 2 received core stability exercises. The duration of treatment was 6 weeks. Data is collected from Comprehensive Rehabilitation center Chakwal Postural stability was evaluated pre and post treatment by pediatric berg balance scale. Values which were obtained after this intervention were analyzed for any change using SPSS
