Compared in the reviewR5 · 10 full-text papers, 1 abstract-only

At least one paper behind this review states what this option was measured against. That is not a ranking, and this option carries no evidence profile of its own.

Requirements it fills

How it is performed
  • - Exercise: Walking on a 7-m walkway with embedded sliding device to simulate slips. - Stance or foot position: Normal walking stance; slips induced by platform release underfoot. - Support surface: 7-m walkway with movable platforms. - Use of hand support: Not mentioned. - Eyes open or closed: Not mentioned. - Head movement: Not mentioned. - Progression sequence: Normal walking followed by unannounced slips; subjects instructed to recover balance. - Repetitions or hold times: 8 unannounced slips per subject.

Dose

Nothing states what this option's dose measures — no library step prescribes this option and its review states no dose unit.

Dose and time, as the papers state it
  • - Dose: 8 unannounced slips per session - Time: Not mentioned (no information on minutes per session, sessions per week, total weekly hours, or total programme length)

Equipment

Equipment is a property of the movement and is authored, never derived from the evidence corpus (docs/research/round2/ROUND2_KNOWN_CORRECTIONS.md §1). This option resolves to no catalogue exercise, so nothing has authored it yet.

Level and prerequisites
  • ability to walk independently, supervision

Progression and regression
  • The exercise involves unannounced slips on a 7-m walkway with a sliding device, simulating real-life slip scenarios. The progression or regression is not explicitly mentioned in terms of traditional balance exercises, but the unannounced nature of the slips challenges participants to react quickly.

Who should not do this
  • - Safety: A harness system is used to ensure participant safety during perturbation training. - Contraindications: Not explicitly mentioned, but the study implies that individuals should not participate unsupervised due to the need for proper harness adjustment and safety monitoring. - Supervision requirements: Supervision is necessary to ensure proper adjustment and use of the harness system.

What the papers compared it with

A paper measuring one option against another does not make the two interchangeable, and it does not say which to choose. These are listed as what the papers did, and nothing here proposes a substitution.
