Balance Performance in Collegiate Athletes: A Comparison of Balance Error Scoring System Measures
Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2017 The assessment of balance among athletes is essential for training, prevention and rehabilitation of injuries resulting from postural instability. The purpose of the investigation was to validate the Sway Medical Balance Application (SMBA) against the ...

Validation of Smartphone Sway Analysis for Fall Prevention
Applied Sciences, 2021 Analysis of the balance and sway of the elderly remains a field continuously studied for additional means of assessing the risks of falls. Almost 50% of falls among the elderly lead to serious injuries, and falls are the leading cause of death for the ...

Effect of Eye-Object Distance on Body Sway during Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation
Brain Sciences, 2018 Gazing at objects at a near distance (small eye-object distance) can reduce body sway. However, whether body sway is regulated by movement in the mediolateral or anteroposterior direction remains unclear.

Concurrent validity of a developed accelerometry-based device for postural sway assessment [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2020 Postural control is one factor related to falls. Many instruments are available to objectively evaluate postural control performance. However, feasibility and applicability is limited by setting and financial restraints.

Foam pads properties and their effects on posturography in participants of different weight [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Foam pads are increasingly used on force platforms during balance assessments in order to produce increased instability thereby permitting the measurement of enhanced posturographic parameters.
