This pilot study aimed to investigate the effect of balance training by Tetraks Interactive Balance System (TIBS) on balance and fall risk in patients with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. Four patients with Parkinson's disease between the ages of 56 and 70 years (61.25±6.70) were applied balance training for 3 weeks by TIBS. Sociodemographic features and physical properties of the subjects were recorded. Their motor performance was evaluated by the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), balance was measured using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Functional Reach Test (FRT), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), and the Standing on One Leg Balance Test (SOL) and, their fall risks were evaluated by TIBS. Evaluations were performed twice, before and after treatment. Following training, Parkinson's patients showed improvements in UPDRS, TUG, BBS, FRT, SOL and fall risk. Balance training by TIBS has positive effects on balance and decreases fall risk in Parkinson's disease patients.
这项初步研究旨在探讨使用Tetraks互动平衡系统（TIBS）进行平衡训练对轻至中度帕金森病患者平衡能力和跌倒风险的影响。对4名年龄在56至70岁（61.25±6.70）之间的帕金森病患者采用TIBS进行了为期3周的平衡训练。记录了受试者的社会人口学特征和身体特性。通过统一帕金森病评定量表（UPDRS）评估他们的运动表现，使用伯格平衡量表（BBS）、功能性前伸测试（FRT）、计时起立行走测试（TUG）和单腿站立平衡测试（SOL）测量平衡能力，并通过TIBS评估他们的跌倒风险。在治疗前后进行了两次评估。训练后，帕金森病患者在UPDRS、TUG、BBS、FRT、SOL和跌倒风险方面均有改善。TIBS进行的平衡训练对帕金森病患者的平衡能力有积极影响，并降低了跌倒风险。
