Exam 8: Overview of Balance Impairments: Functional Implications

The postural control strategy that is most effective at maintaining stability when the support surface is short in relation to foot length is:

Surface dependent patients are most likely to lose their balance when performing which task?

Symptoms of cerebellar involvement include:

Visually dependent patients are at high risk to lose their balance during which task?

Standing in line at the bank without support requires efficient use of which type of postural control strategy?

Which central nervous system structure is used to integrate postural control information?

When the base of support is expanded in the direction of center of mass movement,what type of postural control strategy is used?

A subjective interview that is used to collect information related to balance dysfunction should include:
