The present document describes a computer implemented system and method for performing a quantitative balance assessment on a subject. The method comprises instructing the subject to perform an assessment task with at least a first kinematic sensor mounted on the subject's head; collecting kinematic sensor measurements, comparing the measurements to a threshold value; summing the total number of kinematic sensor measurements that exceed the threshold value to generate a numerical score indicative of the subject's postural stability. The system makes use of only kinematic data collected from the wireless sensors to quantify BESS, and generate a BESS score, without any other physiological variables such as forward sway.
A computer implemented method for performing a quantitative balance assessment on a subject, the method comprising the steps of:
A computer system for performing an objective assessment of a subject's postural stability, the system comprising at least one head mountable kinematic sensor, a transmitter, a receiver, and a processor:
A computing device having access to a memory having recorded thereon statements and instructions for performing a quantitative balance assessment on a subject, the statements and instructions when executed cause the computing device to perform the steps of:
