BOS is recorded. This dyname balance test ran for 20 seconds.
The limits of stability test ran for 300 second to test how well patients could return to their BOs after
moving off-balance in “eight different directions, namely, (1) forward (F), (2) backward, (3) right, (4)
left, (5) forward right, (6) forward left, (7) backward right, and (8) backward left.”
In the dual tast, patients had to complete a cognitive process (basic subtraction) while dling the
dynamaic balance tests. their The patients wore a harness to avoid injury during these tests.
