Comparison of a Non-linear Analysis of Balance During the mBESS to the Sway Balance Application

NCT03994952 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 49

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In order to determine equivalency of the Avert Sample Entropy algorithm's ability to be sensitive to different balance conditions, participants will complete the modified balance error scoring system (mBESS) while standing on a portable force platform. Human-rated errors during the mBESS conditions will be recorded, in addition to measuring balance using the Sway app. These will be compared for levels of agreement and direction of bias using Bland-Altman analyses.

Interventions

DEVICE

Sway Balance Application

Participants complete the modified Balance Error Scoring System as prompted on and iPad mini. It has 5 balance stances, double limb stance, right tandem, left tandem, right single, and left single leg balance for 20 seconds each. This will only be used as measurement, not an intervention.

DEVICE

Balance Tracking Systems

This is a force platform. Center of pressure data will be measured and recorded while participants are completing the modified Balance Error Scoring System. This will only be used as measurement, not an intervention.
