Abstract

Background: Children with Down Syndrome have delayed motor development and coordination due towhich they have poor balance. Balance is the condition in which all the forces acting on body are balancedsuch that the center of mass (COM) is within the stability limits, the boundaries of base of support (BOS).Several scales are available for assessing balance. However, standardized and reliable scales have beenchosen to prevent the error while testing. Many studies have been conducted showing that sensory integrationtherapy improves balance. However, there is paucity of study on Rotational Vestibular Stimulation inimproving balance.Objectives: To study whether the rotational vestibular stimulation will improve balance and gravitationalinsecurity in children with down syndrome.To study the differences in pre-treatment and post-treatmentparameters after rotational vestibular stimulation using outcome measures.Methods: Balance will be assessed prior to treatment and after the treatment. The measures used for assessingwill be Pediatric Balance Scale, Bruininks-Oseretsky Test, Movement Assessment Battery for Children.Results: Once the study is completed, the parameters of outcome measures will be statisticallyanalyzed.Conclusion: Based on previous researches,it may be predicted that there will be significant improvement inbalance in children with Down syndrome.
