False-Positive Rates and Associated Risk Factors on the Vestibular-Ocular Motor Screening and Modified Balance Error Scoring System in US Military Personnel

CONCLUSIONS: False-positive rates across VOMS items were low and associated with age and a history of mTBI, migraine, or motion sickness. False-positive results for the mBESS total score were higher (36.5%) and associated only with a history of motion sickness. These risk factors for false-positive findings should be considered when administering and interpreting VOMS and mBESS components of the MACE-2 in this population.PMID:35696602 | DOI:10.4085/1062-6050-0094.21
