Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Feasibility will be assessed by measuring the following using study data at the 9-week follow-up: 1. Retention rate, calculated as a percentage of the individuals who completed the intervention 2. Recruitment rate, calculated as the percentage of eligible individuals who agree to participate 3. The ability to collect outcomes at baseline and follow-up, calculated as a percentage of completed collected data at baseline and follow-up 4. Adverse events, calculated as the number of harmful or negative events that may have influenced the study procedure | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The following secondary outcome measures are assessed at baseline and at 9-week follow-up: 1. Postural sway in the anterior-posterior and medio-lateral directions will be measured using a 3-second posturography test with a force plate under eyes-open and eyes-closed conditions 2. Vestibular and central eye-movement will be measured by Video Oculography (VOG) and the Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) 3. Spatial orientation will be measured using the same device as in the VOG and vHIT tests 4. Vibration sense will be measured using a tuning fork applied to the malleolus, monofilament testing with varying distances between two blunt plastic sticks applied to the toes, and biothesiometer testing with a vibrating plastic stick applied to the toes | — |
