Comparison of the Tinetti and Short Physical Performance Battery test specificities for detecting neuromotor pathologies

Abstract: Introduction: Increasing elderly populations require specific and accurate health assessment tools. Purpose: To compare the specificities of the short physical performance battery (SPPB) and the Tinetti Index validated in Brazil in patients with and without neuromotor dysfunctions. Materials and methods: Thirty-nine individuals (19 healthy and 20 with neuromotor changes) of both sexes aged 60–75 years, living in Coari (Amazonas state in Brazil), underwent SPPB and Tinetti scale assessments on alternate dates. … Show more

“…This test evaluates balance, gait speed and the ability to get up and down a chair (as indicator of strength) by measuring the time of each activity. It currently provides a combination of scores, giving more precision in the differences in stride and balance (17). The values obtained from IMU and pressure sensors for each one of the three stages of the SPPB test will be captured with higher confidence.…”
