Medial-Lateral Postural Stability And Balance In Community Dwelling Women Over 40 Years Of Age, Jennifer Nitz, Nancy Low Choy, Rosemary Isles
Nancy Low Choy
Objective:
To document the change in medial–lateral balance in women aged between 40 and 80 years.
Design:
A cross-sectional study of six measures of medial–lateral balance was undertaken.
Setting:
The Betty Byrne Henderson Centre for Women and Ageing, Royal Women's Hospital, Australia.
Subjects:
Five hundred and three community-dwelling women between 40 and 80 years of age were randomly recruited from a large metropolitan region with 366 subjects admitted after applying exclusion criteria.
Measurements:
The clinical measurements included the lateral reach and step tests while laboratory measurements were gathered from the Balance Master software programs for unilateral stance and limits of …

The importance of momentum in compensating for elderly individua ls ' strength deficits to achieve activities of daily living. such as rising from a chair ha.!o been demonstrated in earlier studies. Here we present a case control study of three healthy "non-fallers" and two "frequent fallers," All 5 elders were community-living and were tested in the gai l laboratory. A four-camera Selspot system was used to obtain whole-body momentum from an 11-segment kinematic model. Ground reaction forces and kinematics were used 10 calculate lower extremity join! moments. With the exception of the whole-body's angular momentum about the vertical axis, linear …
