Falls and postural control in older adults with cataracts

Background: There is increasing evidence that visual impairment contribute to falling. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of vision impairment of old adult patients with cataract on the occurrence of falls and postural control. Methods:According to the results of screening ophthalmic examination, 48 cataract patients (mean±SD aged 68.5 ± 6.08 yrs.) and 50 individuals withou...

Postural Control in Older Adults

M aintaining balance is essential to carrying out daily tasks without falling. This review will describe the impact of impaired postural control on older adults, operationalize what is meant by postural control, and outline postural control test batteries. Findings from highly quantitative, laboratorybased studies will be discussed because these data serve as the foundation of knowledge regardi...

Increased dynamic regulation of postural tone through Alexander Technique training.

Gurfinkel and colleagues (2006) recently found that healthy adults dynamically modulate postural muscle tone in the body axis during anti-gravity postural maintenance and that this modulation is inversely correlated with axial stiffness. Our objective in the present study was to investigate whether dynamic modulation of axial postural tone can change through training. We examined whether teache...
