Reliability of Biodex Balance System Measures

Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2001
This study examined the reliability of measures of dynamic balance obtained using the Biodex Balance System (BBS). Twenty male (n = 10) and female (n = 10) active adults engaged in weight-bearing sports volunteered for this study. Dynamic balance was assessed using measures obtained from the BBS at a spring resistance level of 2.

Studying the correlation between balance assessment by Biodex Stability System and Berg Scale in stroke individuals

Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies, 2019
Balance disorders are considered to be a serious clinical manifestation after stroke. Therefore, to assess stroke patients' balance performance, use of a quantitative method appears essential. A fundamental step would be the approval of the efficiency of the measurement instruments.

Determination of Biodex Balance System Cutoff Scores in Older People With Nonspecific Back Pain: A Cross-sectional Study

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2021
The purpose of this study was to determine cutoff scores for the Biodex Balance System (BBS) and verify if they could be used to discriminate older people with nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP) with poor postural performance from those with good postural performance.This cross-sectional study included 52 participants with NSLBP older than 65 years. One

Evaluation of dynamic postural balance using the Biodex Stability System in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Clinical Rheumatology, 2005
The aim of this study was to investigate dynamic postural balance in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in relation to the disease characteristics. Seventy-four patients with RA and 42 controls of the same age group were tested using the Biodex Stability System (Biodex Medical Systems, Shirley, NY, USA). Anterior/posterior (AP), medial/lateral (ML)

Testing Postural Stability: Are the Star Excursion Balance Test and Biodex Balance System Limits of Stability Tests Consistent?

Gait and Posture, 2016
There are a variety of options to test postural stability; however many physical tests lack validity information. Two tests of postural stability - the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) and Biodex Balance System Limits of Stability Test (LOS) - were examined to determine if similar components of balance were measured.

Minimal Detectable Change for Balance Using the Biodex Balance System in Patients with Parkinson Disease

PM&R, 2019
BackgroundMinimal detectable change (MDC) when assessing balance using the Biodex Balance System (BBS) in patients with Parkinson disease (PD) is currently unknown, limiting the interpretability of the scores.ObjectiveTo determine the MDC on the Anterior/Posterior Stability Index (APSI), Medial/Lateral Stability Index (MLSI), and Overall Stability ...

Risk of falls using the Biodex Balance System in non-faller patients with Parkinson Disease

Somatosensory & Motor Research, 2021
Biodex Balance System (BBS) is a low-cost platform used to assess balance in different populations. However, no study has used this tool to evaluate the risk of falls related to balance changes in non-faller individuals with Parkinson Disease (PD).The aim of this study was to determine the changes in the balance in non-faller individuals with mild to ...

Intertester and Intratester Reliability of a Dynamic Balance Protocol Using the Biodex Stability System

Journal of Sport Rehabilitation, 1998
Evaluating balance can be an important part of the rehabilitation protocol of an athletic injury. One purpose of this study was to determine the intertester and intratester reliability scores of single-leg stability on a platform of gradually decreasing stability using the Biodex Stability System (BSS).

Factors Affecting Reliability of the Biodex Balance System: A Summary of Four Studies

Journal of Sport Rehabilitation, 2000
Purpose:To describe differences in test-retest reliability of balance measures produced by the Biodex Balance System.Methods:Subjects performed balance tests in 4 studies, each involving two 30-second tests under varying conditions. Test-retest reliability coefficients were calculated for the overall stability index (SI) under each condition.
