Dissertation note: Thesis (Ph.D.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Gynecology and Obstetrics Summary: This study was conducted to examine the effect of electronic balance board on balance in postmenopausal women. Forty postmenopausal women, their age ranged from 50-65 years, were selected from the Outpatient Clinic, Faculty Of Physical Therapy, Cairo University. All postmenopausal women were assigned randomly into two groups equal in number, Group (A): participated in a training on an electronic balance board program in addition to balance rehabilitation program in form of fall-specific training program (i.e., forward-directed stepping response to backward-directed postural perturbations) and aerobic exercise (treadmill) for 4 weeks. And group (B): they participated in a balance rehabilitation program and aerobic exercise as in group (A) for 4 weeks.Evaluations of all postmenopausal women in both groups (A&B) were done before and after the end of treatment (4 weeks), using Biodex Balance System [overall stability index, Medial/Lateral stability index and Anterior/Posterior stability index], Berg Balance scale (BBS), time up & go test, Push & Release Test and older people quality of life questionnaire. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference (P< 0.001) in push & release test score, time up & go test score, BBS score, overall stability index, MLSI, APSI and older people life questionnaire score in group (A) as well as group (B). Comparison between both groups (A&B) before starting the study reveals statistically non-significant difference between them. While after the end of the study, there was statistically significance difference (P< 0.001) in push & release test score and older people quality of life questionnaire score, BBS score, overall stability index, MLSI and APSI in favor to group (A), while there is no significant differences (P>0.05) in time up & go test score. Accordingly, it could be concluded that electronic balance board is considered a simple method for improving balance in postmenopausal women
