摘要:
The present document describes a computer implemented system and methodfor performing a quantitative balance assessment on a subject. The methodcomprises instructing the subject to perform an assessment task with at leastafirst kinematic sensor mounted on the subjects head collecting kinematicsensormeasurements, comparing the measurements to a threshold value summing thetotal number of kinematic sensor measurements that exceed the threshold valueto generate a numerical score indicative of the subjects postural stability.Thesystem makes use of only kinematic data collected from the wireless sensors toquantify BESS, and generate a BESS score, without any other physiologicalvariables such as forward sway.
