Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Stroke is one of the major causes of permanent disability. Stroke can have many causes and occurs mainly in old age, Hemiplegic patients have a two-fold higher risk of falling than other patients of the same age or gender, beside fall in older adults can cause significant physical and psychological injury to the individual. Otago exercises are the interventions given for fall prevention in elderly and showed good results with hemiplegic cases as well, it is easy and could be done by old adults even at home. Plantar vibration as a cheap, portable, and easy applicable, saving time and with no effort could be a good choice as a treatment tool to be added for old hemiplegic patients treatment programme. Thus applying an easy and effective programme for old hemiplegic subjects that reduces their risk of fall and improves their balance and ADL and at the same time helps them to conduct it easily and adhere to it should be our target to full fill.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

The study group will be treated with both plantar vibration and Otago exercise whereas the control group will receive Otago exercise only. Both groups will receive a 50 minutes of otago exercise program except for the study group will take 15 minutes of plantar vibration with frequency of 80 Hz, with 10 seconds of vibration and 5 seconds of rest with total time 15 min before the Otago exercise. The frequency of the exercise will be 3 times a week for 12 weeks.
