Posturography Findings in Workers Exposed to Industrial Solvents

open access: yesActa Oto-Laryngologica, 1989
Postural control was investigated by static posturography in 18 workers exposed to industrial solvents, 9 patients with psycho-organic syndrome due to industrial solvent exposure, and 52 controls.

The Diagnostic Accuracy of Static Posturography in Predicting Accidental Falls in People With Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesNeurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 2013
Background. Quantitative posturography has been reported as a reliable tool to measure balance in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). However, data on its diagnostic accuracy in predicting the occurrence of falls are lacking. Objective.

Virtual reality in posturography

IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine, 2006
Balance dysfunctions are common, especially among elderly people. Present methods for the diagnosis and evaluation of severity of dysfuntion have limited value. We present a system that makes it easy to implement different visual and mechanical perturbations for clinical investigations of balance and visual-vestibular interaction.

Posturography

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1981
Posturography is a method of measuring a patient's ability to control his balance. Currently available testing techniques may be useful to otologists, although they have not been shown to yield information beyond that obtained from other diagnostic Procedures. More powerful techniques are under development, but methodologic problems remain, and none is

Open source posturography

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2016
The proposed validation goal of 0.9 in intra-class correlation coefficient was reached with the results of this study. With the obtained results we consider that the developed software (RombergLab) is a validated balance assessment software. The reliability of this software is dependent of the used force platform technical specifications.Develop and ...

Posturography and Vertigo

1996
Traumatic damage to the soft tissue in the neck may cause the onset of vertigo and dizziness in a large number of cases [13, 31, 47, 49]. The attacks of vertigo and dizziness may last for months after the injury, although these usually decrease significantly as the neck pain subsides. The dizzy Symptoms which follow even a rather light case of whiplash

Dynamic Posturography

2014
Different stable postures are possible according to the relative position of the three principal muscle-joint systems – ankles, knees and hips – between the body’s COG and the base of support (Fig. 18.1).

Aphysiologic performance on dynamic posturography

Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1995
The remarkable ability of the body to maintain balance is the result of central nervous system integration of sophisticated inputs from the vestibular, visual, and somatosensory systems. Strategies by patients with balance dysfunction are aphysiologic when their performance is relatively better on more difficult conditions of sensory conflict than on ...

Videonystagmography and Posturography

2019
Videonystagmography (VNG) and posturography are two vestibular assessment techniques that are still in use today. VNG: VNG allows clinicians to observe and record eye movements in real-time. Compared with electronystagmography (ENG), VNG tracings are more detailed and can capture subtle clinical findings.

Evaluation of biomechanical models in posturography

Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 1985
Frequency analysis was employed to identify the relationship between movements of the body and the resultant torque on the groundplane. The results of these measurements were compared with computer simulations of the mathematical relationships between torque and movements. Differences between measurements and simulations were examined.
