DESIGN: This study was a randomized controlled trial studying 30 children (8-10 yrs old) with Down syndrome. They were assigned randomly using  sealed envelopes, with 15 children allocated to the control group (9 boys, 6 girls) and another 15 children allocated to the study group (8 boys, 7 girls). The control group received a designed physical therapy program, whereas the study group received the same program given to the control group in addition to whole-body vibration training. Both groups received the treatment sessions three  times per week for 6 successive months. Measurement of stability indices by using the Biodex Stability System as well as muscle strength of the knee flexors and extensors by using a handheld dynamometer was done before and after the 6 mos of  the treatment program. RESULTS: Each group demonstrated significant improvements  in stability indices and muscle strength after treatment (P &lt; 0.05), with significantly greater improvements seen in the study group when compared with the control group (P &lt; 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Whole-body vibration may be a useful intervention modality to improve balance and muscle strength in children with Down syndrome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether whole-body vibration training could improve standing balance and muscle strength<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"tags":[1719,1718,1262,1717],"thema":[5878,5890,5856],"produktgruppe":[7527,5831,5829],"literatur_kategorie":[7221],"class_list":["post-165132","literatur","type-literatur","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-grfs70","tag-bakance","tag-muscle-function","tag-muscle-strength","thema-medical-applications","thema-paediatrics","thema-therapy-prevention-using-galileo","produktgruppe-galileo-en","produktgruppe-galileo-therapy","produktgruppe-galileo-training-en","literatur_kategorie-clinical-studies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literatur\/165132","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literatur"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/literatur"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literatur\/165132\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165132"},{"taxonomy":"thema","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thema?post=165132"},{"taxonomy":"produktgruppe","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/produktgruppe?post=165132"},{"taxonomy":"literatur_kategorie","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literatur_kategorie?post=165132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
