结局指标
主要结局
Nintendo Wii Balance Board (WBB)
时间窗: one hour
COP displacement on double leg with eyes open/closed (%): Lower scores (approaching 50%) indicate better static balance. Frontal plane stability on dominant leg with eyes open/closed (%): The total score ranges between 0 and 100%. Higher scores indicate better static balance.
Berg Balance Test (BBT)
时间窗: one hour
The minimum score of the BBT is 0 and the total maximum score of the BBT is 56. Higher scores indicate better dynamic balance.
次要结局
