About this study
Official title: Effects of Different Exercise Programs on Balance Performance and Gait Biomechanics in Children With Visual Impairment
This study looks at whether Reformer Pilates can help children and adolescents with visual impairment improve their balance, walking patterns, and muscle strength.
Participants are between 10 and 17 years old. They are randomly placed into one of two groups: an exercise group or a control group.
Read more
Those in the exercise group take part in 12 supervised Reformer Pilates sessions over 6 weeks, meeting twice a week. Those in the control group keep up with their usual daily activities and do not join the exercise program during this time.
Before and after the 6-week period, researchers measure each participant's balance, walking patterns, and muscle strength. They then compare how much each group changed.

Description: Trunk extensor endurance is assessed using a modified Sørensen test performed on a Roman chair, with the pelvis and lower extremities secured. Participants cross their arms over the chest and maintain the trunk horizontally aligned with the lower extremities, knees extended, for as long as possible. The test is terminated when the participant can no longer sustain the position, and the duration is recorded in seconds.
Measured: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 6

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This study looks at whether Reformer Pilates can help children and adolescents with visual impairment improve their balance, walking patterns, and muscle strength.
Participants are between 10 and 17 years old. They are randomly placed into one of two groups: an exercise group or a control group.
Those in the exercise group take part in 12 supervised Reformer Pilates sessions over 6 weeks, meeting twice a week. Those in the control group keep up with their usual daily activities and do not join the exercise program during this time.
Before and after the 6-week period, researchers measure each participant's balance, walking patterns, and muscle strength. They then compare how much each group changed.
