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

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Multimodal Balance Rehabilitation Program: A multimodal rehabilitation program based on balance dimensions designed to improve balance performance in people with acquired brain injury.

Conventional Physiotherapy: Conventional physiotherapy routinely provided at CEADAC according to standard clinical practice.

Study summary

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.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Balance performance assessed using the Spanish adaptation of the Balance Evaluation Systems Test validated in people with acquired brain injury (BESTest_DCA). — Baseline and 12 weeks (end of intervention)
  Change in balance performance measured using the Spanish adaptation of the Balance Evaluation Systems Test (BESTest\_DCA), previously validated in people with acquired brain injury. The test evaluates six balance control systems and provides a total score ranging from 0 to 108 points. Higher scores indicate better balance performance.
