What this trial studies

This study aims to determine normative values for static and dynamic posture across various age groups, specifically focusing on four posture tests: sensory organization, motor coordination, adaptation, and stability limit. Healthy subjects aged 20 to 89 will be evaluated to establish a comprehensive posturological and spatial cognitive profile. The findings will serve as a reference for identifying pathological values in conditions affecting balance and posture, particularly in vestibular and neurological disorders. The study utilizes a new platform designed for posturological evaluation.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are healthy individuals aged 20 to 89 without any history of balance disorders or neurological conditions.

Not a fit: Patients with a history of vertigo, dizziness, or balance disorders will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide essential benchmarks for diagnosing and treating balance and posture disorders.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is innovative, similar studies have established norms for posture evaluation, indicating potential for success.
