Abstract
Aims & Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Vestibulo-Postural Training Using a Bipodalic Stabilometric Platform in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Methodology: Thirty-two participants were randomly allocated into either Level Bipodalic Stabilometric Training Group (LBSTG) or Tilted Bipodalic Stabilometric Training Group (TBSTG), using a computer-generated randomization sequence. The study's approach to evaluating postural control in individuals with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) involved a precise methodology using a state-of-the-art ProKin 252 balancing platform (ProKin 252, TecnoBody, Italy). Results: The study revealed that while the LBSTG training did not produce a significant change in postural control for individuals with DPN, the TBSTG training led to a significant improvement. These results highlight the potential benefits of incorporating challenging balance tasks into rehabilitation programs for individuals with DPN to enhance postural control and stability. Conclusions: this study advocates for the importance of innovative balance training interventions in enhancing the stability and mobility of patients with DPN, potentially leading to improved clinical outcomes in the management of this condition.
