Foam Posturography: A Cheaper Way to Analyze Postural Stability in Peripheral Vestibular Disorders
Methods: The study included 62 patients with peripheral vestibulopathy (unilateral n:41, bilateral n:21) and 45 healthy controls. Neurological and neurotological examinations including tonal audiometry, caloric tests and static posturography [mean center of gravity (COG) sway velocity, shift in COG alignment, tandem walk (step width, walking speed, and end sway velocity)] were performed in all ...
متن کاملFoam pads properties and their effects on posturography in participants of different weight
BACKGROUND Foam pads are increasingly used on force platforms during balance assessments in order to produce increased instability thereby permitting the measurement of enhanced posturographic parameters. A variety of foam pads providing different material properties have thus been used, although it is still unclear which characteristics produce the most effective and reliable tests. Furthermor...
متن کاملDynamic posturography in assessment of polyneuropathic disease.
Twenty-eight patients with polyneuropathy aged 49-82 years (mean 67 years) were assessed by dynamic posturography. The patient group was compared to a control group comprising 29 healthy controls aged 70 through 75 years (mean 73 years). The dynamic posturography method comprises a sensory organization part in which the platform and visual surround are either stable or referenced to the patient...
متن کاملElderly fall risk prediction using static posturography
Maintaining and controlling postural balance is important for activities of daily living, with poor postural balance being predictive of future falls. This study investigated eyes open and eyes closed standing posturography with elderly adults to identify differences and determine appropriate outcome measure cut-off scores for prospective faller, single-faller, multi-faller, and non-faller clas...
متن کاملModified head shake computerized dynamic posturography.
PURPOSE Recent research on head shake posturography has demonstrated a modest increase in sensitivity to identifying peripheral vestibular system asymmetry when horizontal head movements were added to portions of the standard Sensory Organization Test (SOT) battery. However, limitations with respect to the head shake protocol were outlined, and usable data for assessing performance could not be...
