Posturography with head movements in the assessment of balance in chronic unilateral vestibular lesions

Scientific Reports, 2021
The aim of our study was to validate the method of head-shake static posturography (HS-posturography) in healthy individuals and to establish the value of this novel method in the diagnostics of patients with unilateral vestibular lesion (UV).

Critical evaluation of the benefits and limitations of foam posturography in vestibular disorders: a narrative review [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
This review synthesises current evidence on the clinical utility of foam-based posturography in the assessment of vestibular pathologies. It critically evaluates: (1) the physiological mechanisms underlying foam posturography and its capacity to ...

Posturography techniques to identify balance problems in elderly individuals with vestibulopathy – a comparison study [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
Objective: To compare the postugraphic outcomes of two different methods in four basic postural conditions. Methods: The individuals with vestibular disorders were divided into two subgroups according to their age: more than 60-years old and aged between

Normative data for instrumented posturography: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Postural control is a multisensory adaptive system performing predictive (anticipatory) and/or reactive (compensatory) actions, with varying degrees of accuracy, to maintain balance in a changing environmental context.

A New Wearable System for Postural Balance Assessment: Comparison with EquiTest and Static Posturography in Healthy Adults [PDF]

Audiology Research
Background: Objective assessment of postural control is central to the clinical evaluation of vestibular disorders. Although force-platform-based posturography is considered the gold standard, its use may be limited by cost and infrastructural ...

Sex and age differences of postural control in community-dwelling older adults [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
ObjectiveForce platforms are widely used to assess postural stability and fall risk in older adults. However, traditional parameters often capture overlapping phenomena and fail to fully reflect underlying control mechanisms.
