“…The star excursion balance test (SEBT) is a well-established, reliable clinical tool for dynamic postural control [3] that assesses different neuromuscular functions, such as proprioception [4], joint range of motion (ROM) [5] and lower extremity strength and balance [6]. Clinically, the SEBT has proved to be sensitive in detecting functional deficits in patients with different lower extremity dysfunctions and diagnoses [3], improvements in response to training [7], and predicting the risk of lower extremity injuries [8]. However, the SEBT does not examine trunk, upper extremity and all hip joint movements in the assessment of dynamic postural control, and therefore is not well suited to revealing functional deficits in these joints in combination with lower extremity joint movements.…”

Abstract:Measuring dynamic postural control and mobility using task-based full-body movements has been advocated. The star excursion balance test (SEBT) is well-established, but it does not elicit large upper body joint movements. Therefore, the hand reach star excursion balance test (HSEBT) was developed. The purpose of the current study was to assess the inter-rater and test-retest reliability and validity of the HSEBT. Twenty-nine healthy male subjects performed ten HSEBT reaches on each leg on four different occasions, led by three different raters. Reach distances were recorded in centimeters and degrees. Then, twenty-eight different healthy males performed the HSEBT while using a standard motion capture system. Reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) (range 0.77-0.98). Stability of measurement was assessed using the standard error of measurement (SEM) (range 0.3-2.8 cm and 1.7 • -2.6 • ) and coefficient of variation (CV) (range 2.1-14.6%). Change scores were obtained using minimal detectable change (MDC 95 ) (range 0.9-7.9 cm and 4.7 • -7.2 • ). Observed (Max m ) and calculated (Max kin ) maximum hand reach measurements showed good to excellent correlations. Bland Altman analysis established a fixed bias for all tests, which can be partially explained by the kinematic calculations. In conclusion, the HSEBT is a valid and reliable full-body clinical tool for measuring dynamic postural control and functional joint mobility.

“…Large bodies of research have demonstrated dynamic balance deficits, as measured by the SEBT, between control and pathological groups with conditions such as acute ankle injuries (Doherty et al, 2015), chronic ankle instability and anterior cruciate ligament injuries (Herrington et al, 2009). Additionally, researchers have attempted to establish the role these assessments play in the detection of risk factors that may predispose individuals to lower limb injuries (Gribble et al, 2015, Plisky et al, 2006.…”

Abstract:The Y Balance Test (YBT) is one of the most commonly used dynamic balance assessments in clinical and research settings. This study sought to investigate the ability of a single lumbar inertial measurement unit (IMU) to discriminate between the three YBT reach directions, and between pre and post-fatigue balance performance during the YBT. Fifteen subjects (age: 23±4, weight: 67.5±8, height: 175±8, BMI: 22±2) were fitted with a lumbar IMU. Three YBTs were performed on the dominant leg at 0, 10 and 20 minutes. A modified Wingate fatiguing intervention was conducted to introduce a balance deficit. This was followed immediately by three post-fatigue YBTs. Features were extracted from the IMU, and used to train and evaluate the random-forest classifiers. Reach direction classification achieved an accuracy of 97.80%, sensitivity of 97.86±0.89% and specificity of 98.90±0.56%. "Normal" and "abnormal" balance performance, as influenced by fatigue, was classified with an accuracy of 61.90%-71.43%, sensitivity of 61.90%-69.04% and specificity of 61.90%-78.57% depending on which reach direction was chosen. These results demonstrate that a single lumbar IMU is capable of accurately distinguishing between the different YBT reach directions and can classify between pre and post-fatigue balance with moderate levels of accuracy.
