Home balance rehab for fall prevention
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Heart & circulation, Infections, Lungs & breathing, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a home-based balance exercise program using a computer or tablet. It aims to help people who are at risk of falling due to stroke, mild cognitive impairment, a vestibular (inner ear) disorder, or long COVID.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a telerehabilitation decision support system for people with balance or dizziness problems after stroke, MCI, vestibular disorders, or long COVID. It aims to provide tailored exercise guidance to improve safety and confidence at home.
This study tests a reactive balance training program to reduce fall risk. It may help you improve how your balance reacts when you are pushed or lose stability.
This trial tests a home-based program that combines physical therapy with computer-based cognitive exercises for stroke survivors. It aims to see if this combined approach improves recovery more than standard physical therapy alone.
This study tests two simple programs—Otago exercises (leg and balance movements) and a fear-reduction technique—to help people who had a stroke improve balance, reduce falls, and overcome fear of falling. It is designed for those still able to walk and in the early weeks of recovery.
This study tests a special balance training system that uses visual feedback to help stroke survivors improve their walking and reduce fall risk. It may be a good fit if you've had a stroke on one side and still have some trouble with balance or walking.
This trial tests a home-based exercise program (via video or app) to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some physical weakness. It aims to improve strength and movement without needing to travel to a clinic.
