Postural Stability 1 Measures of Postural Stability
Dynamic posturography has become an important tool for understanding standing balance in clinical settings. A key test in the NeuroCom dynamic posturography system, the Sensory Organization Test (SOT) provides information about the integration of multiple components of balance. The SOT test leads to an outcome measure called the equilibrium score (ES), which reflects the overall coordination of...

Dynamic posturography has become an important tool for understanding standing balance in clinical settings. A key test in the NeuroCom International (Clackamas, Oregon) dynamic posturography system, the Sensory Organization Test (SOT), provides information about the integration of multiple components of balance. The SOT test leads to an outcome measure called the "equilibrium score" (ES), which...
متن کاملEvaluation of time-to-contact measures for assessing postural stability.
Postural stability has traditionally been examined through spatial measures of the center of mass (CoM) or center of pressure (CoP), where larger amounts of CoM or CoP movements are considered signs of postural instability. However, for stabilization, the postural control system may utilize additional information about the CoM or CoP such as velocity, acceleration, and the temporal margin to a ...
متن کاملTest-retest reliability and minimal detectable change for center of pressure measures of postural stability in elderly subjects
Abstract Background: Postural instability has been identified as a potential precursor of falls in elderly subjects. Postural stability in quiet stance is commonly assessed with center of pressure (COP) measures. The purpose of this study was to determine testretest reliability and minimal detectable change (MDC) for the center of pressure (COP) measures in the elderly subjects. Met...
متن کاملTest-Retest Reliability of Dynamic Postural Stability Measures in Healthy and Chronic Non-specific Low Back Pain Groups
Objective: The primary aim of the present study was to study the reliability of postural stability measures during whole body dynamic conditions, so they can be used in postural stability evaluations, investigations of injury mechanisms and assessments of treatment efficacy. Materials & Methods: Twelve healthy volunteers and 12 low back pain patients performed repeated trunk bending motions ...
