简要总结
The purpose of this study is to innovatively design and develop computerized dual-task balance training modules and home modules, and conduct proactive clinical verification to focus on the effectiveness of balance control and gait stabilization strategies. It is expected that in addition to the development of the training module, a proactive study will be conducted at the same time. During the period from the fourth quarter of the first year to the second year, there will be 25 patients in the experimental group and 25 patients in the control group. A total of 50 patients will undergo preliminary efficacy analysis.
详细描述
After mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), patients often complain of dizziness, balance disturbances, and gait instability. On average, dizziness accounts for about 23 to 81%, and dizziness symptoms persist from 1.2% 6 months after the injury. Between 32.5% in 5 years. In the past, in the process of neuron regeneration and repair after mild traumatic brain injury, it was found that vestibular function and biomarkers may be related to balance restoration and treatment. It is necessary to conduct further research to explain its potential mechanism and clinical significance. In addition, balance training after mTBI can accelerate dizziness recovery, balance control and gait stability, but the effect lasts for a limited time. The development of a dual-task balance training module can extend the recovery time, this project needs to be discussed in depth. This project mainly explores the influence of balance control and gait strategies after mTBI, linking vestibular function and biomarkers; innovative design and development of computerized dual-task balance training and home modules; combined with computerized dual-task balance training modules can accelerate the recovery of dizziness, balance control and gait stability after injury.

结局指标
主要结局
Balance of postural-stability test
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
The balance of postural stability was tested according to 3 stability indices (overall stability, OA; anterior-to-posterior stability, AP; and medial-to-lateral stability, ML).
Modified clinical test of sensory integration and balance (mCTSIB)
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
The mCTSIB, which includes 4 sway indices, was conducted 4 sensory conditions: (1) eyes open whilst standing on a firm surface (EOFIS); (2) eyes closed whilst standing on a firm surface (ECFIS); (3) eyes open whilst standing on an unstable (foam) surface (EOFOS); and (4) eyes closed whilst standing on an unstable (foam) surface (ECFOS).
Balance of sensory-integration test
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
The balance of postural-stability test and the modified clinical test of sensory integration and balance (mCTSIB) were performed using the Biodex Stability System (BSS; Biodex Medical Systems, Shirley, NY, USA).
Vestibular function test - oculomotor system
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
Use smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEMs) to obtain baseline data. The examiner evaluates SPEMs by subjectively noting their accuracy in relation to a target that is being moved manually to nine directions. At the same time, the patient follows it with his or her eyes.
Balance test
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
Berg Balance Scale (BBS), which rated performance from 0 (cannot perform) to 4(normal performance) on 14 different tasks, including ability to sit, stand, reach, lean over, turn and look over each shoulder, turn in a complete circle and step. The total possible score is 56, indicating excellent balance. A score of 0 to 20 indicates a high risk, 21 40 indicates a medium risk, and 41 56 indicates a low risk of falling. indicates a low risk of falling. Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) test Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) test
Gait analysis
时间窗: The end of intervention (assessments within one week)
The spatiotemporal gait parameters of asymmetry of the feet were measured with Physilog® system (Gait up Sàrl, Lausanne, Switzerland).
