Medians, proportions and results from the Wilcoxon rank sum test for all measurements (n=21).
Outcomes | Median (pre) (min- max) | Median (post) (min-max) | Proportions of participants that improved | P-value |
---|---|---|---|---|
FES-S (0–130) | 120 (94-130) | 127 (86-130) | 51 % | .133 |
SPPB (0–12) | 11 (6-12) | 11 (8-12) | 38 % | .030 |
Fall techniques backward (0–4) | 1 (0-4) | 4 (0-4) | 71 % | < .001 |
Fall techniques forward (0–4) | 1 (0-2) | 2 (0-4) | 75 % | <.001 |
Note FES-S= Falls efficacy scale-Swedish version, SPPB= Short Physical Performance Battery; bold figures indicate a significant value ≤ 0.05.
