Abstract
Background: Post Infectious Polyneuropathies are peripheral neuropathies affected multiple nerves; generally refer to bilateral symmetric disturbance of peripheral nerve function. Purpose: The purpose of current study was to identify the effect of balance training on postural instability in patients with Post Infectious Polyneuropathy. Study Design: A pre and post test design. Subject and methods: Thirty Post Infectious Polyneuropathy patients (7 females and 23 males). Age ranged from 21-33 years; in sub-acute and chronic stage were participated in the study. Patients were randomly divided to two equal groups, fifteen patients each. Patients attended three sessions per week in total eight weeks, both groups receivedselected designed of physical therapy program (Mid passive range of motion exercises, Respiratory exercises, Manual muscles strengthening, Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation.)plus balance training program using balance biodex system in group A only. All patients were assessed using Biodex Balance system and manual muscle testing pre and post treatment program. Results:The statistic of results showed there were significant differences in the same both groups pre and post treatment (P{uF03C} 0.05), and was no significant differences compare between both groups (A&B) (P{uF03E} 0.05); clinically group A percentage improvement in balance was higher than group B Conclusion:Balance training proved to beneficial clinicallyimprovingpostural stability in post infectiouspolyneuropathy to prevent guest falling
