Abstract

Objective : The aim of this study was to identify the effect of visual feedback on balance and ADL in patient with cerebellar ataxia. Method : Between May of 2013, visual feedback applied to cerebellar ataxia patient. The visual feedback applied five times a week for two weeks to patient who are inpatients of Dae-jeon. To assess changes in balance, we performed the LOS, Romberg, BBS, We also assessed ADL using Canadian occupational performance measure(COPM). Result : For the patient of cerebellum ataxia, we can confirm the limitation of stability, and after the intervention, we can check out the changes which are maintained at Romberg test and Berg Balance Scale. In terms of daily activities, such as taking bath, moving to somewhere, using transportation, doing the laundry, and meeting activity, the level of performance and satisfaction has increased in all five fields. Conclusion : After the visual biofeedback training, patients with cerebellar Ataxia showed more increase in balance and ADL.
