Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Standard Wobble Board   The control group will receive Standard Wobble Board Training, consisting of conventional balance exercises such as standing, weight shifting, and controlled tilting on a wobble board for 15 minutes per session along with standard physiotherapy exercises, once daily, 5 days a week, for 2 weeks duration. 
Intervention  Wobble Board Therapeutic Exergaming   A therapeutic exergaming system utilizing a wobble board has been developed for balance and postural stability training. The wobble board is embedded with an inertial motion-tracking sensor that detects body movement and provides real-time feedback. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to a tablet, allowing patients to interact with on-screen game tasks by tilting the board in different directions. Balance training using a wobble board with exergame feedback, will be given for 15 minutes per session along with standard physiotherapy exercises, once daily for 5 days a week, for 2 weeks duration.

Brief Summary  

Stroke often leads to impaired balance, reduced limits of stability and decreased functional mobility, increasing fall risk and dependency in daily activities. Conventional balance training methods, though beneficial, may lack engagement and real-time feedback. Exergaming integrates physical activity with interactive gaming, providing visual biofeedback to enhance motivation, postural control, and motor learning.

This experimental study aims to compare the short-term effects of wobble board therapeutic exergaming versus standard wobble board training on balance, limits of stability, and functional mobility in stroke patients. Thirty-six participants aged 18–59 years with unilateral stroke will be randomly allocated into two groups. The experimental group will receive wobble board therapeutic exergaming with standard physiotherapy, while the control group will undergo standard wobble board balance training with the same physiotherapy regimen. Both interventions will be delivered 5 sessions per week for 2 weeks.

Outcome measures include the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Multidirectional Reach Test (MDRT), and Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, assessed pre- and post-intervention. The study aims to provide evidence on the effectiveness of exergaming-based wobble board training as an engaging and effective approach to improve balance and functional mobility in stroke rehabilitation.
