“…In patients VD, mostly FE comes because of dizziness and feeling unstable when standing or doing some activities. Previous studies justified the effectiveness of gaze and balance exercises to improve balance and confidence respectively with moderate effect size ( Aldawsary & Almarwani, 2023 ; Bhardwaj & Vats, 2014 ).…”

Background The performance of balance is an important factor to perform activities. The complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), especially vestibular dysfunction (VD), could decrease balance performance and falls-efficacy (FE) which consequently impacts social participation and quality of life (QoL). Purpose This study aimed to compare balance performance, FE, social participation and QoL between individuals with T2DM with and without VD. Methods The participants comprised 161 T2DM with VD and 161 without VD. Three clinical tests used for confirming VD included the Head Impulse Test (HIT), the Dix Hallpike Test (DHT) and the Supine Roll Test (SRT). The scores of static and dynamic balances, FE, social participation and QoL were compared between groups. Results The balance performance, FE, social participation and QoL were lower in the group with VD. The number of patients who had severe social restriction was higher in T2DM with VD than without VD (58.4% vs 48.4%). Moreover, all domains of QoL (physical, psychological, social relationships and environmental) were lower in T2DM with VD than without VD. Conclusion The presence of VD in T2DM patients was associated with decreased physical balance performances and increased social and QoL disengagement. Comprehensive management related to balance and FE, as well as the monitoring to support social participation and QoL, should be emphasized in patients with T2DM with VD.

“…The series of BSE can improve sensory input (visual, vestibular and proprioceptive), sensory processing, sensory integration and motor output regulation. 10,11 The BSE movement was also able to increase the limits of stability, increase joint stability and proprioception of the ankle joint. 12,13 Increasing dynamic balance through BSE training was achieved by increasing the muscles of the lower extremities and postural muscles thereby creating improvements in limits of stability, increasing the body's automatic postural response, increasing dynamic control and achieving sensory integration and balance recovery reaction.…”

Decreased balance can cause various obstacles and can cause injury to the elderly, one of which is falling. Falls cause hip fractures and more serious injuries such as head injuries. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the Otago home exercise. The research sample consisted of 30 respondents who were divided into the treatment group who received the Otago home exercise programme (OHEP) training as many as 15 respondents and the control group who received the balance strategy exercise (BSE) training as many as 15 respondents. After training 3 times/week for 4 weeks results were obtained, the difference in the average increase in dynamic balance was analyzed by paired sample t test before and after the intervention in the OHEP group with a p=0.000 (p<0.05) and the BSE group with a p=0.000 (p<0.05) which means that there is a significant difference in the increase in dynamic balance before and after training. Independent t test obtained p=0.000 (p<0.05) which means there is a significant difference between the two groups. The average percentage increase in dynamic balance in the OHEP group was greater than the BSE group with a difference of 12.36%. In conclusion based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the provision of the OHEP is better at improving dynamic balance than the BSE in the elderly.
