Effects of trampoline training on lower-limb strength and balance in children and adolescents with special needs: a multilevel systematic review and meta-analysis
Clinical Scorecard: Impact of Trampoline Training on Lower Limb Strength and Balance in Children and Adolescents with Special Needs: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
At a Glance
Category
Detail
Condition
Key Mechanisms
Trampoline training enhances balance and engages lower-limb muscles through rebound exercises, but lower-limb strength improvements are not statistically significant.
Target Population
Care Setting
Key Highlights
Trampoline training significantly improves static balance (SMD = 1.47, p < 0.001).
Dynamic balance improvement is less stable (SMD = 0.72, p = 0.032).
Lower-limb strength increase is not statistically significant (SMD = 0.43, p = 0.125).
Substantial heterogeneity observed in outcomes (I2 > 75%).
Longer intervention durations and moderate training frequencies yield greater balance improvements.
Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
Management
Implement trampoline training as an intervention to enhance static balance.
Consider strategies to improve dynamic balance as well.
Monitoring & Follow-up
Risks
Patient & Prescribing Data
Children and adolescents with special needs, including neurodevelopmental disorders.
Trampoline training can be integrated into rehabilitation programs to improve balance.
Clinical Best Practices
Utilize trampoline training to engage children with special needs in physical activity.
Monitor individual progress in balance and strength through standardized assessments.
Consider the unique needs and challenges of each child when designing intervention programs, acknowledging variability in training effectiveness.
