Balance Dimensions-Based Rehabilitation Program in People With Acquired Brain Injury

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Acquired Brain Injury, Balance Disorders

In brief

The purpose of this clinical trial is to find out whether a rehabilitation program based on different dimensions of balance can improve balance, mobility, walking ability, and quality of life in people with acquired brain injury. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does this rehabilitation program improve balance? * Does it improve mobility and walking ability? * Does it reduce the risk of falls? * Does it improve quality of life? Researchers will compare a specific balance rehabilitation program with conventional physiotherapy to determine whether the balance program provides additional benefits. Participants with acquired brain injury who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Both groups will receive treatment for 12 weeks. Participants will: * Complete balance and mobility assessments before starting treatment. * Receive either the balance rehabilitation program or conventional physiotherapy five times per week. * Complete assessments immediately after treatment and again 6 and 12 weeks later. The information obtained from this study may help improve rehabilitation programs and daily functioning for people with acquired brain injury.
