A systematic review of perturbation-based balance training on reducing fall risk among individuals with stroke

The existing evidence does not conclusively support the reduction in falls and improvements in fall risk factors resulting from perturbation-based balance training among people with stroke. Such an inconsistent finding could be due to the small sample sizes and variations in perturbation-based balance training protocols across studies. More high-quality studies are needed to further determine the effects of perturbation-based balance training on reducing fall risk in people with stroke.
