简要总结
Down Syndrome is a congenital disorder resulting from the trisomy of the human chromosome 21, which will determine, among other characteristics, intellectual disability and growth retardation. Reduced muscular strength, cardiovascular capacity, sleep problems, and impaired walking performance are also observed in Down syndrome participants. The estimated global prevalence is around 0.1% of live births. Children with Down's syndrome (DS) often have greater postural sway and delay in motor development. Muscle weakness and hypotonia, particularly of the lower extremities are theorized to impair their overall physical health and ability to perform daily activities. Posture, balance, and movement issues are common in children with Down syndrome. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of Lower Limb Fitness Program on dynamic balance and mobility in children with Down Syndrome. This study explore that Lower Limb Fitness Program could improve the dynamic balance and mobility in children with DS.
详细描述
Group A: Experimental group:
Group A will receive Range of motion for 5 minutes involving movements that stretch and strengthen the muscles and improve the stability. Proprioceptive training for 5 minutes which involve Single-leg balance Start with 20-30 seconds per leg and gradually increase to 1 minute 2-3 sets per leg. Weight bearing exercises on an uneven surface (such as Bosu ball or stability disc) and jumping rope 5-10 minutes/session. All proprioceptive training done firstly with eyes open and then with close eyes. Squat-to-stand training proprioceptive training lower extremity. This intervention aims to get the muscles ready before the actual intervention and improve proprioceptive ability. Exercises will be given three times a week for 6 weeks with session conducting 45 minutes per sessions which involve Squat-to-stand training will repeat 30 times 3 sets for 20 min. 2minute break after 1 set.. Balance training which involves standing activities with support, progressing to unsupported as tolerated for 10 minutes/session.
Group B: Control group:
In control group routine therapy will be given 3 times a week for 6 weeks with session conducting 45 minutes per sessions which involve standing balance exercises, sitting from chair to stand, heal to toe stand will be performed.
Data will be assessed by assessor at baseline by single leg stance test and at the end of 6th session of treatment (Pre and post).

结局指标
主要结局
Pediatric Balance scale
时间窗: 6 weeks
Pediatric version of balance scale is used to evaluate static and dynamic balance in children aged 3-15 years with mild-to-moderate motor impairment. The scale comprises 14 items including sitting balance, standing balance, sitting to standing/standing to sitting, transfers, stepping, reaching forward with outstretched arm, retrieving object from floor, turning, and placing foot on stool items. Each item is scored from 0 points (lowest function) to 4 points (highest function) with a maximum score of 56 points
Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction in Balance (CTSIB-M)
时间窗: 6 weeks
This test is designed to assess how well an older adult is using sensory inputs when one or more sensory systems are compromised. In condition one, all sensory systems (i.e., vision, somatosensory, and vestibular) are available for maintaining balance. In condition two, vision has been removed and the older adult must rely on the somatosensory and vestibular systems to balance
Timed up and go test
时间窗: 6 weeks
The TUG test assesses the participant's mobility by timing how quickly they can complete the test and dynamic balance by assessing their ability to sit-to-stand, stand-to-sit, walk, and their ability to change directions. The participant stood up from a chair (46 cm seat height) with no armrests, walked 10 feet, turned around, walked back to the chair, and sat back down as quickly as possible
