Posturography examination as a diagnostic tool in children - a review of the literature
Journal of Medical Science, 2019 Introduction. Posturograph tests are used to assess the vestibular reflex, which can be helpful for specialists who analyze body balance disorders. Despite many studies on the stability of body posture in pediatric patients, there is still a lack of ...

Static posturography in aging and Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2012 In clinical practice, evaluation of postural control is based on the neurological examination, including Romberg's test, examination of gait and performance of pull test as part of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). The goal of our study was to identify posturographic parameters since quantitative technical methods for the ...

Development of a Dynamic Oriented Rehabilitative Integrated System (DORIS) and Preliminary Tests
Sensors, 2019 Moving platforms were introduced in the field of the study of posturography since the 1970s. Commercial platforms have some limits: a limited number of degrees of freedom, pre-configured protocols, and, usually, they are expensive.

Effect of supervised exercise on physical function and balance in patients with intermittent claudication [PDF]
, 2014 Background The aim of the study was to identify whether a standard supervised exercise programme (SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication improved specific measures of functional performance including balance. Methods A prospective observational
