          Abstract

          RESUMEN: Introducción y objetivo: El desarrollo de las plataformas dinamométricas computadorizadas ha significado una evolución trascendental en la medición del equilibrio en bipedestación estática. El objetivo principal de nuestro estudio es determinar la relación entre los límites de estabilidad y el tipo de información que utilizan estos pacientes para mantener el equilibrio. Método: Estudio de cohortes retrospectivo de una muestra de 70 pacientes a partir del análisis de los resultados obtenidos en las posturografías dinámicas computadorizadas (PDC) realizadas en la Unidad de Otoneurología del Servicio de Otorrinolaringología y Cirugía de Cabeza y Cuello del Complejo Asistencial Universitario de Salamanca. Resultados: No hay ningún tipo de déficit en 28 de los 70 pacientes a los que se realizó una PDC. La media de los límites de estabilidad en los pacientes con un valor compuesto patológico es menor que los pacientes con un compuesto normal, siendo esta relación estadísticamente significativa (p < 0,05). Los pacientes con mayor afectación de los límites de estabilidad son aquellos que no hacen un buen uso de la información vestibular y visual. Conclusiones: Es importante analizar qué tipo de información (vestibular, visual y/o somatosensorial) utilizan los pacientes para mantener el equilibrio, destacando qué si el paciente no usa correctamente la información vestibular para mantener el equilibrio, se pueden promover estrategias de rehabilitación para reducir el riesgo de caídas.

          SUMMARY: Introduction and objective: The development of computerized dynamometric platforms has meant a transcendental evolution in the measurement of balance in static standing. The main objective of our study is to determine the relationship between stability limits and the type of information used by these patients to maintain balance. Method: Retrospective cohort study of a sample of 70 patients based on the analysis of the results obtained in computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) performed in the Otoneurology Unit of the Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery Service of the University Assistance Complex of Salamanca. . Results: There is no type of deficit in 28 of the 70 patients who underwent DTCA. The mean of the stability limits in patients with a pathological compound value is lower than in patients with a normal compound, this relationship being statistically significant (p < 0.05). The patients with greater involvement of the limits of stability are those who do not make good use of vestibular and visual information. Conclusions: It is important to analyze what type of information (vestibular, visual and/or somatosensory) patients use to maintain balance, highlighting that if the patient does not correctly use vestibular information to maintain balance, rehabilitation strategies can be promoted to reduce the risk of falls.

          Functional reach: a new clinical measure of balance.

          A new clinically accessible measure of balance, functional reach (FR), is the difference between arm's length and maximal forward reach, using a fixed base of support. The purposes of this study were to (a) establish FR as a measure of the margin of stability versus the laboratory measure, center of pressure excursion (COPE); (b) test reliability and precision, and (c) determine factors that influence FR, including age and anthropometrics. We evaluated FR in 128 volunteers (age 21-87 years). FR was determined with a precise electronic device and a simple clinical apparatus (yardstick). FR correlates with COPE (Pearson r = .71) and is precise (coefficient of variation = 2.5%) and stable (intraclass correlation coefficient across days = .81). Age and height influence FR. FR is portable, inexpensive, reliable, precise, and a reasonable clinical approximator of the margin of stability. FR may be useful for detecting balance impairment, change in balance performance over time, and in the design of modified environments for impaired older persons.
