About this study

Official title: Comparative Effects of Modified Otago Exercises and Action Observation Training on Strength, Functional Mobility and Fall Risk in Patients With Diabetic Neuropathy

To compare the Effects of Modified Otago Exercise and Action Observation Training on strength, functional mobility and fall risk in patients with diabetic neuropathy.

Read the detailed description

This study will be a randomized clinical trial. A total of 38 participants with diabetic neuropathy will be taken. By using non probability convenience sampling technique patients will be randomized and allocated into two intervention groups based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.Patients in group A will receive modified Otago exercises with conventional treatment.Patients in group B will receive Action Observation Training with conventional treatment.All participants will receive treatment of 40 minutes per session for 5 days a week for 8 weeks.The Michigan neuropathy screening instrument will be used for the assessment of diabetic neuropathy score.The strength,functional mobility and fall risk will be assessed by using 30 second chair stand test, Timed up and go test and fall efficacy scale.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Michigan neuropathy screening instrument (MNSI)

    To determine neuropathy, Michigan neuropathy screening instrument (MNSI) developed by the researchers at the university of Michigan in 2000, used to diagnosed peripheral neuropathy. It includes two parts; section A is self-administered by the patient and assess the clinical symptoms through 15 Yes or No questions and section B is used on a clinical evaluation. The questionnaire inquiries about positive (pain, temperature sensation and tingling) and negative (numbness, sensory symptoms, cramps and muscle weakness, foot ulcer or cracks and amputation. Neuropathy can be defined as seven or more positive responses on the MNSI questionnaire. The test-retest reliability of the Turkish version of the MNSI was determined as 0.99 for the total score (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.996)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. 30 second chair stand test

    30 second chair stand test assesses the leg strength and endurance in older adults.it is part of the stop elderly accidents, deaths, and injuries which was created by centers for Disease Control and Preventions a screening tool for senior belonging to the high fall risk group .it has excellent test-retest reliability r=0.89(95%confident interval 0.79-0.93)The test measures the number of times and older adults can get up from a chair with their arms crossed in front of their trunk(on the opposite shoulder crossed at the wrists)in 30 seconds.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. The timed up and go test

    The timed up and go test is to identify mobility and balance. Patients sitting in a chair without armrest will be asked to stand up with the start command and walk the 3-meter distance, whose start and end points are specified before, turn around and sit on the chair again. The test will be repeated 3 times and the average time will be recorded. The TUG test showed excellent reliability (ICC>.95) The Timed -up and go‖ test showed good intrarater and interrater reliability (r = .93 ). less time taken by patient will be graded as good mobility

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Fall Efficacy Scale International:

    Fall Efficacy Scale International:

    It is a common test battery with 16 items that reveals the possibility of falling in patients. The total score ranges from 16 to 64, where 16 indicates NO concern and 64 indicates EXTREMELY concerned about falling during the performance of specific activities suggested by the questionnaire.

    Measured: 6 months

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Michigan neuropathy screening instrument (MNSI) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06459375, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
