FERNANDEZ-NAVA, María José et al. Stability limits in different posturography patterns. Cohort study. Rev. ORL [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.4, pp.289-295. Epub 12-Jan-2023. ISSN 2444-7986. https://dx.doi.org/10.14201/orl.28981.
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.
