Study Summary
Falls are the primary cause of traumatic injury in older adults, and tripping is the leading cause of falls. A robust method for improving aging-related proprioceptive deficits is lacking, while strong evidence shows that proprioception deficits are highly associated with poor balance recovery from tripping. Previous research suggested that stochastic vibratory stimulation (SVS) can influence proprioception (i.e., muscle spindle function) among healthy controls; however, it is not clear how older adults with deficits in muscle spindle function would react to SVS. In previous work the investigators showed promising findings of standing balance and timed-up-and-go (TUG) improvements using SVS among high fall risk older adults with history of fall 15-18. They will implement SVS in the current project to improve aging-related proprioceptive deficits. The hypothesis is that SVS improves muscle spindle function and balance recovery from tripping in older adults with proprioceptive deficits.
Primary Outcome
Investigators will extract outcomes treadmill perturbation. Failing to recover from the perturbation will be identified if the entire body weight is supported by the harness. Recoveries with integrated weight support greater than 5% of the weight × second will be classified as harness-assisted recoveries. All other recoveries will be considered successful and will be used for kinematics and muscle response analysis. Kinematics outcomes will assess response time, recovery step execution, and lowe
