Robotic-Assisted System in Enhancing Balance, Postural Stability, Functional Gait and Fall Efficacy in Older Adults
Sponsor: Gulf Medical University
Summary
Our study aims to investigate the effectiveness of a more individualized and personalized feedback-oriented approach using a Robotic Assisted System, the Hunova Movendo Robotic System. This system is tailored to specific needs of individuals and is dynamically adjustable relative to patients' balance and functional demands. It will be compared to Otago Exercise Programme which is more generalized. Given the generalized nature of the Otago Exercise Programme, we aim to compare it with the Robotic Assisted Systems in the enhancement of Balance, Postural Stability, Functional Gait and Fall Efficacy in older adults.
