초록

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of six-week biofeedback training for prevention of falling in elderly persons. Biofeedback training for using the TETRAX system. Methods: Thirty healthy elderly persons(men=17, women=13) who were 79 years of mean age participated in sensory regulation training. They were trained for thirty minutes a day, three times per week. We measured subjects sensory regulated function by TETRAX system, and analyzed mean difference of observed variables by paired t-test between the pre and post test. Results: The first experimental group were significantly difference between pre and post test. The second control group were not significantly between the pre and post test. The third there are significant between group. Conclusion: The results of this study reveal that biofeedback training exercise will improve sensory balance function, and further studies needs to identify which specific factors are related to fall in the elderly population, and it is expected this study may contribute in reducing fall and therapeutic exercise in falling.
