Conclusions
Participation in a PBT program that includes multiple perturbation types and directions did not lead to significantly different effects than usual care on balance control measured with the Mini-BESTest in this population of community-dwelling older adults with a recent history of falls. Fear of falling measured with the FES-I did not change in either group. More research is needed to elucidate the training dose-response relationship of PBT, and how to modulate PBT training load to attain optimal and transferrable training adaptations. Additionally, further study is needed to explore which clinical outcomes are suitable to measure PBT training effects on balance control in community-dwelling older adults.
