Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Change of postural balance: amplitude of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Amplitude of CoP displacements will be assessed in millimeters using a computerized balance system. Higher displacements indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

  • Change of postural balance: velocity of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Velocity of CoP displacements will be assessed in millimeters using a computerized balance system. Higher velocity indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

  • Change of postural balance: sway area of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Sway area of CoP displacements will be assessed in mm\^2 using a computerized balance system. Higher sway area indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

  • Change of dual task balance: amplitude of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Amplitude of CoP displacements will be assessed in millimeters using a computerized balance system. Patient will perform a cognitive task (e.g. counting) while maintaining balance. Higher displacements indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

  • Change of dual task balance: velocity of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Velocity of CoP displacements will be assessed in millimeters using a computerized balance system. Patient will perform a cognitive task (e.g. counting) while maintaining balance. Higher velocity indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

  • Change of dual task balance: sway area of Center of Pressure (CoP) displacements

    Sway area of CoP displacements will be assessed in mm\^2 using a computerized balance system. Patient will perform a cognitive task (e.g. counting) while maintaining balance. Higher sway area indicate worse balance.

    baseline and 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Limits of Stability (LOS): success rate

    baseline and 3 months

  • Limits of Stability (LOS): time

    baseline and 3 months

  • The Berg Balance Scale

    baseline and 3 months

  • Functional capacity: The Timed "Up & Go" test

    baseline and 3 months

  • Functional capacity: Sit-to-stand test

    baseline and 3 months

  • +7 more secondary outcomes
