Nov 9, 2016 · Berg Balance Scale (r = 0.84, p < 0.001) Timed Up and Go Test (r = 0.84, p < 0.000) Adequate concurrent validity and statistical significant with: Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale (r = 0.53, p < 0.001) Predictive Validity: FGA correctly identified 6/7 unexplained falls in the 6 months following testing Adults older than 60 years of age experience the greatest number of fatal falls. [1] A range of tools are available to health care providers to identify those at risk of falling. Tools include: Falls Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT); Berg Balance Scale; Timed Up and Go Test (TUG); The Balance Outcome Measure for Elder Rehabilitation (BOOMER). measures that assess balance in seniors, this area has received less attention in Pediatrics.

SARA is a clinical scale developed by Schmitz-Hübsch et al which assesses a range of different impairments in cerebellar ataxia. The scale is made up of 8 items related to gait, stance, sitting, speech, finger-chase test, nose-finger test, fast alternating movements and heel-shin test. [1] Schmitz-Hübsch et al developed the Scale UDE Operational Instructions: Patients may stand with feet hip distance apart or their self-selected preferred stance. Patients must stand for two minutes without holding and/or using stepping strategies to maintain balance. A score of a 1 indicates “several tries” - please allow a maximum of 3 attempts. 3. s2P6I.
