| Research Abstract |
Prevention of falls and fall related injuries in older people is social issues, and patients with peripheral neuropathy have so many falls and injuries compared to healthy subjects. In this study, we focused on the relationship between tactile sensibility and walking stabilization. Measurement experiments of nerve stimulation delayed walking by using ice immersion were conducted. These experimental results suggest that plantar tactile sensitivity is one of the major factors for fall prevention. Furthermore, we found that tactile sensitivity is improved by micro vibration, suggesting new possibilities for preventing falls.
