In this new clinical trial, we investigated the effects of different perturbation-based balance training (PBT) session distributions (massed vs. distributed) on postural stability in older adults with a history of falls.

Effect of a Perturbation-Based Balance Training Session on Adaptive Locomotor Response in Older Adults With a History of Falls
Aim: To assess the adaptive response of older adults with a history of falls in a single Perturbation-Based Balance Training (PBT) session by examining the margin of stability (MoS) and the number of ...
