Assessment of the Wii Basic Balance Test in measuring postural deficits post-concussion
Methods: Seventy-nine healthy physically active controls (NORM) (mean age 21.23 ± 1.78), and fifty-six athletes with concussions (CONC) (mean age 19.39 ± 2.145) participated in this study. All participants performed the Wii Basic Balance Test, which requires the participants to shift weight mediolaterally to maintain a red bar within a blue area denoted on the screen for three seconds during se...

متن کاملQuantification of postural control deficits in patients with recent concussion: An inertial-sensor based approach.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to quantify postural control ability in a group with concussion compared with a healthy control group. METHOD Fifteen concussion patients (4 females, 11 males) and a group of fifteen age- and sex-matched controls were recruited. Participants were tested during the performance of the three stance variants (bilateral, tandem and unilateral) of the balance er...
متن کاملChronic Post-Concussion Neurocognitive Deficits. II. Relationship with Persistent Symptoms
Individuals who sustain a concussion may continue to experience problems long after their injury. However, it has been postulated in the literature that the relationship between a concussive injury and persistent complaints attributed to it is mediated largely by the development of symptoms associated with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression. We sought to characterize cognitive ...
