Normative Data for the NeuroCom® Sensory Organization Test in Subjects Aged 80–89 Years
Aging is known to increase the risk of falling. In older people, whose share in the total population is rising sharply, the Sensory Organization Test (SOT, Equitest NeuroCom) is a useful tool during rehabilitation and in clinical research for assessing ...

Postural control in episodic ataxia type 2: no evidence for increased vestibular excitability
Abstract Background and purpose Patients with episodic ataxia type 2 (EA2) suffer from recurrent paroxysmal episodes of vertigo and oscillopsia. Pathophysiologically, altered neuronal excitability has been suspected. Vestibular excitability in 22 EA2 patients and 22 age‐matched healthy participants was compared. Methods Galvanic vestibular stimulation (

Correlation of the composite equilibrium score of computerized dynamic posturography and clinical balance tests [PDF]
BackgroundThe computerized dynamic posturography has been widely used to access balance control in patients with balance dysfunction. A composite-equilibrium score (CS) can be calculated from the sensory organization test using the computerized dynamic ...
