IRCT20211224053509N1 IRCT 2022-08-16 Bagheiat-allah University of Medical Sciences Effect of virtual reality on balance of elderly Comparing the effectiveness of virtual reality and therapeutic exercise on improving balance and fear of falling in Military retirees and elderly 2022-07-06 anticipated 30 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/60941 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In this study, the sealed envelope method is used for randomization. Participants are allocated based on a selection of randomly arranged sealed envelopes labeled "virtual reality group" or "exercise therapy group." This process is done by someone who has no role in the data analysis or intervention process, Blinding description: Evaluation of the outcomes is performed by experienced individuals who are blind to the patient's allocation to the groups . N/A Older adult- fear of falling. Intervention 1: Intervention group (Virtual Reality): The intervention in this group is based on the virtual reality system. The virtual reality system is designed based on force sensors and a motion detector system (Kinect). In performing interventions based on the force sensor, the person stands on the surface in dimensions of 50 x 30 in front of the monitor and performs the activities and games shown on the monitor by changing the center of mass of the body. The activities that a person performs can be leveled and its intensity increases as the person's performance changes. In performing interventions using the Kinect device, the person stands in front of the sensor and performs different motor activities in accordance with the designed activities and games that are displayed on the screen. These motor activities include a variety of activities, such as standing on one leg, jumping, and maintaining balance in a variety of body postures. Intervention 2: Control group: In the control group, conventional interventions to improve balance are performed according to the Otago Exercise Program (OEP). OEP exercises consist of two parts: strengthening exercises and balance exercises. Strengthening exercises are aimed at increasing the strength of the pelvic floor, knee, and ankle muscles, which will move from an assetive to a resistance one. Balance exercises also include bending the knee, walking backward, walking sideways, standing in a tandem position, random walking, standing on one foot, walking on the toe and heel, sitting and standing up going up and down the stairs.
