Outcome measures (range of possible scores) for the control- and PBT-group at T0 (baseline) and T1 (post-intervention). Change = difference between pre- and post- outcome values. Mini-BESTest = Mini Balance Evaluation Systems Test. FES-I = Falls Efficacy Score International. Increased fall risk = the percentage of participants at increased risk for falling based on their Mini-BESTest score. Data is presented as median (IQR) or n (percentage)
