Implication

Pilot randomized control trial shows Wii balance board training may improve balance and ataxia severity in individuals with cerebellar ataxia, indicating further study is warranted.

Key Points

Wii balance board-based training improved retention rates in patients with cerebellar ataxia compared to the control group.
The intervention showed trends toward better outcomes in ataxia severity and balance assessments with moderate enjoyment reported.
Incorporating a pilot randomized controlled trial, the study revealed feasibility in clinical settings for patients with various forms of cerebellar ataxia.
Efficacy testing focused on clinical measures like the mini-BESTest and Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia.
