- Original description
The purpose of this study is to compare the impact of Modified Otago Exercises and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization Exercises on patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) using valid tools such as the Berg Balance Scale and the Katz Index of Independence in ADL. The results of our study will be helpful for clinical decision-making in terms of selecting specific physiotherapy treatment techniques in an attempt to improve their function, reduce their falls, and improve their independence specific to diabetes neuropathy.Read full original descriptionShow less
Effects of Modified Otago Exercises Versus Neuromuscular Dynamic Stabilization Exercises on Balance and Activities of Daily Living in Patients With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
The purpose of this study is to compare the impact of Modified Otago Exercises and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization Exercises on patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) using valid tools such as the Berg Balance Scale and the Katz Index of Independence in ADL. The results of our study will be helpful for clinical decision-making in terms of selecting specific physiotherapy treatment techniques in an attempt to improve their function, reduce their falls, and improve their independence specific to diabetes neuropathy.
