Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Our hypothesis is that the correlation between the balance score revealed by the newly developed evaluation system and the results of clinical and instrumental balance assessment methods will be significant. For this, one commonly used clinic and one instrumental balance assessment method will be used. Star Excursion Balance Test as a clinical balance assessment method and Balance Master device (BMc) as an instrumental balance assessment method were evaluated. Limits of Stability Test (LOS) and Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction in Balance (mCTSIB) were used in the BMc.

Star Excursion Balance Test
The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) is a dynamic test that requires strength, flexibility, and proprioception. It is a measure of dynamic balance that provides a significant challenge to athletes and physically active individuals. The test can be used to assess physical performance, but can also be used to screen deficits in dynamic postural control due to musculoskeletal injuries (e.g. chronic ankle instability), to identify athletes at greater risk for lower extremity injury, as well as during the rehabilitation of orthopeadic injuries in healthy active adults.\[
Balance Master device
The Balance Master (Neurocom International, Inc Clackamas,) device is a computerized posturography device. The device consists of a fixed support surface consisting of a force table and individuals, a variety of ground elements and a computer screen that will provide visual feedback and conduct test protocols. Posturography tests a person's ability to integrate visual, vestibular and somatosensory inputs and suppress inappropriate sensory information. Thus, it can quantitatively score the person's balance and examine balance problems in detail with the tests it contains. There are various protocols that evaluate balance differently in Balance Master (BMc). Limits of Stability Test (LOS) and Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction in Balance (mCTSIB) were used in the BMc.
