Protocol summary

Study aim
Studying the role of the foot properioception on dynamic balance, neuropathy and physical performance after ankle balance training in type 2 diabetic patients
Design
Semi experimental study, 24 patients with type 2 diabetes and moderate neuropathy with abscence of control group, not randomized and convenience with blinded outcome assessor
Settings and conduct
This study examines the role of the foot proprioception in type 2 diabetic Patients with neuropathy. At first Patients refer to the endocrinology clinic and then qualified patients will perform balance and neuropathy tests in Shahid Beheshti Rehabilitation Faculty Laboratory and clinic at different Sessions. The exercises will perform on balance boards in different modes for 10 sessions. The study is single blinded by individual assignment as an outcome assessor.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria : patients aged 40-65 years old with at least five years history of type 2 diabetes and neuropathy, Fasting Blood Sugar ≥126 mg/dl, manual muscle test with degree ≥ 3 in the ankle muscles, Visual test score of at least 20.40 at dominant eye, Body Mass Index between 25-29.9 kg.m2 with vibration perception disorder. Exclusion criteria : patients with foot ulcer, non-diabetic neuropathy, orthopedic, neurologic and amputation problems.
Intervention groups
The exercises will perform on Wobble and Rocker boards in both plantar and dorsi, right and left directions for 10 sessions. Each exercise conducts for five times and each time takes 15s to perform with a 45s rest between the repetitions. Walking and training programs is also planned to monitor blood glucose.
Main outcome variables
Anterior Posterior, Medial Lateral and Overall stability index, Functional Reach Test, Time Up and Go Test, Vibration perception, Skin sensation perception
