Paper Review: Are there no falls with dancing?: Dance Therapy & Cognitive Exercises in Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

This study compares the effects of a multimodal movement intervention (coordinative–cognitive exercises and dancing program) with standard physical therapy on gait, physical function, and quality of life in 60-80 year-old patients with lumbar spinal stenosis over a six week trial period. The primary outcome measures used for analysis were Minimum toe clearance (MTC), double step length (DSL) variability, and the Timed “Up & Go” test (TUG). The secondary outcome measures used were the Brief Pain Inventory, the short Fall Efficacy Scale–International (sFES-I), and the Oswestry Disability Index.
The authors concluded that the Multimodal Intervention group had significantly lower MTC variability than the PT group which signifies a low variability in the normal gait stride. There were no changes observed in DSL in this group. The Multimodal Intervention group reported an improved TUG and a reduced sFES-I. This decreased MTC variability and fear of falling and enhanced functional mobility may reduce the risk of falling.
