Brief Summary

In view of the long-term exercise, you can maintain your health and strengthen your physical strength. It can also improve your body's balance and help maintain your body's coordination so that you can reduce the chance of falls. Therefore, in the face of aging, stroke rehabilitation or balance of power caused by balance of power decline, sports injuries or falls related issues, this study will focus on "balance ability" to explore a range of impacts and relationships.

Conditions

Postural Stability

Keywords

Modular Interactive Tiles System, MITS; Stroke

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Center of pressure, COP

  The experiment will collect the COP signals of the participants in different situations through the force plate, and judge the external stimuli to influence the balance by measuring the results.

OTHER

Subjects were randomly assigned to the experimental or control group after completing the Berg scale test before the experiment. In the experimental group, external stimulation (MITS) was added, and the training time was 65 minutes. Before the start of the experiment and after the training every 4 weeks, each group must carry out the Berg scale and balance assessment.

NO INTERVENTION

Subjects were randomly assigned to the experimental or control group after completing the Berg scale test before the experiment.In the control group, each training time was 45 minutes.Before the start of the experiment and after the training every 4 weeks, each group must carry out the Berg scale and balance assessment.

Interventions

Modular Interactive Tiles System, MITS DEVICE

The modular robotic brick system was developed by Danish scholar Prof. Henrik Hautop Lund in collaboration with the University of Siena in Italy to develop a new tool. The system uses the design principles of different levels of daily life activities, combined with the way of cognitive games, Lego toys can combine different game concepts, with a set of individual or multi-person activity programs with hands or feet, provide a set Modular floor tiles for stroke patients and the elderly.
