Epilepsy syndrome-associated balance dysfunction assessed by static posturography
PURPOSE To compare subclinical balance dysfunction in patients with various epilepsy syndromes with apparently healthy subjects. METHODS Twenty-seven patients with localization-related epilepsy (LRE), 19 with primary generalized epilepsy (PGE), who had no subjective complaints of impaired balance and no abnormal neurologic findings on examination, and 22 apparently healthy subjects, underwent...
متن کاملComputerized Dynamic Posturography (CDP) and the Assessment of Balance with Active Head Movements
Of the numerous tools available for assessing patients with imbalance, the most clinically effective one is an accurate clinical history i.e., the patient’s past and presenting symptoms. Once the symptoms have been established, then one can select the appropriate laboratory studies which when interpreted in conjunction with that history should offer information relative to site-of-lesion, narro...
متن کاملModified head shake computerized dynamic posturography.
PURPOSE Recent research on head shake posturography has demonstrated a modest increase in sensitivity to identifying peripheral vestibular system asymmetry when horizontal head movements were added to portions of the standard Sensory Organization Test (SOT) battery. However, limitations with respect to the head shake protocol were outlined, and usable data for assessing performance could not be...
متن کاملObjectively assessing balance deficits after TBI: Role of computerized posturography.
Balance impairment, or postural instability, is a common source of residual physical disability after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Standardized functional measures such as the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) do not specifically assess balance. Furthermore, no agreement exists as to the optimal way to objectively measure balance problems in the TBI population. Technological advance...
متن کاملThe Effect of Virtual Reality and Tetra-Ataxiometric Posturography Programs on Stroke Patients With Impaired Standing Balance
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of virtual reality (VR) and a tetra-ataxiometric posturography (Tetrax) program on stroke patients with impaired standing balance. METHODS Thirty acute stroke patients with impaired standing balance were recruited and randomly assigned to a VR, Tetrax, or control group. All patients received conventional balance training as a baseline; and VR and Tetrax pat...
