Master Title

EFFECT OF BALANCE TRAINING PROGRAM ON POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN AT RISK OF FALLING

Master Abstract

Objective of this Study: was to evaluate the effect of balance training program on postmenopausal women at risk of falling. Method: Forty postmenopausal women with age of 55-65 years old were selected randomly from the outpatient clinic of the Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University with collaborative work with the Faculty of Medicine, MUST University. They were divided randomly into two groups; each group consisted of twenty patients. The first group (group A) study group received selected balance training program (60-75min, 3times/week), the second group (group B) control group would ask to continue their ordinarily daily activities for 6 weeks. Overall stability index, antero-posterior stability index, and medio-lateral stability index (OSI, APSI & MLSI), functional reach test, and activities specific balance confidence (ABC) scale were measured at the beginning of the study and after six weeks. Results: The results of this study revealed that, there was a statistically highly significant decrease in the post treatment mean values of balance parameters (OSI, APSI & MLSI) compared to pre treatment values (P = 0.0001), and highly significant increase in post treatment mean values of functional reach test and ABC scale compared to pre treatment values. Also there was a highly significant improvement in all parameters post treatment of the study group compared to that of control group (p = 0.0001). However, there was no significant difference between pre and post treatment mean values of all parameters in the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Selected balance training program is beneficial for postmenopausal women at risk of falling.

EFFECT OF BALANCE TRAINING ON BALANCE AND FUNCTIONAL ACTIVITIES IN WOMEN TREATED WITH CHEMOTHERAPY

PHD Abstract

This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of balance training program on balance, neuropathy symptoms and functional activities in cancer women whom treated with chemotherapy. A total of 40 breast cancer women complained from chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) participated in the study. Their age was 40-50 years and their body mass index (BMI) ranged from 25 to 34.9 Kg/m². They were randomly distributed into two equal groups. Both control and study groups received neurotoxic potential chemotherapy including paclitaxel and docetaxel for at least 4 cycles within the previous 6 months and continued to receive their dose as an adjuvant therapy. In addition, the study group received a balance training program for 50-60 minutes, 2 sessions/week for 12 weeks. Each patient was assessed using Biodex balance system to measure the overall stability index (OSI), anteroposterior stability index (APSI), and mediolateral stability index (MLSI). Also, the functional reach test was used to assess the functional reach distance (FRD) and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy assessment tool (CIPNAT) was used to assess neuropathy symptoms and functional activities before and after 12 weeks of the study course. Results showed that there was no significance difference in OSI (p=0.26), APSI (p=0.51), MLSI (p=0.38), functional reach distance (p=0.23), interference items score (p=0.31), and a significant increase (p=0.03) in the symptom experience items score of the control group post-treatment. However, there was a highly significant decrease (p=0.0001) in the OSI, APSI, and MLSI, interference items score, and symptom experience items score, as well as a highly significant increase (p=0.0001) in the functional reach distance of the study group post-treatment. Compared to the control group, the study group showed more highly significant decrease (p=0.0001) in the APSI, MLSI, interference items score, symptom experience items score (P=0.0001) and in the OSI (p=0.003), as well as more significant increase (p=0.0001) in the functional reach distance. Therefore, it can be concluded that selected balance training program is effective for improving balance, neuropathy symptoms, and functional activities in cancer women whom treated with CIPN.
