Comparing Balance Performance on Force Platform Measures in Individuals with Parkinson's Disease and Healthy Adults.

Conclusion: These findings suggest FP measures provide clinically meaningful, diagnostic information in the examination of balance impairments in individuals with PD. FP measures may inform clinicians regarding intrinsic balance deficits and guide them in designing targeted balance interventions to reduce fall risk in persons with PD. PMID: 30687494 [PubMed]
