Software balance:

Balance software is a powerful balance assessment and training tool. Within the analysis area, the software is capable of assessing:

mCTSIB – Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Integration and Balance and Romberg test
This protocol allows measurement of static balance under four sensory conditions: stable surface and eyes open; stable surface and eyes closed; unstable surface and eyes open; and unstable surface and eyes closed.

Body swing
You can create a customized posturography. Define the initial conditions and obtain the variation in CoP, ML, and AP over time. It also includes more than 30 parameters derived from a posturographic examination, including Fourier analysis.

Limits of stability (LOS)
Perhaps the most widely used protocol for balance assessment, this protocol quantifies directional control and the maximum distance the patient can reach with their center of pressure in eight different directions.

Risk of falling
To measure static balance under four conditions: comfortable posture with eyes open and eyes closed, and narrow posture with eyes open and closed. After the performance, the swing velocity index value is displayed and provides a prediction of fall risk.

Rhythmic weight shifting
Use the (Rhythmic Weight Shift) protocol to assess the ability to transfer the center of pressure rhythmically in the sagittal and anteroposterior planes, at three different speeds.

Unilateral posture
To measure balance under four conditions: left foot raised with eyes open, left foot raised with eyes closed, right foot raised with eyes open, and right foot raised with eyes closed.

Balance Error Scoring System
The BESS protocol allows postural stability to be measured with eyes closed in three different positions on two types of surfaces (firm and unstable): two feet together, unipodal position, and tandem.

The software doesn't just assess balance; it proposes a series of exercises to improve body balance through training. These include:

- In the sagittal and anteroposterior exercises , the patient must reach the equilibrium position in the sagittal plane or in the anteroposterior plane.

- In the spider web, tunnel, dot pattern and bar pattern exercises , the goal is to maintain a balanced position despite the visual stimulus.

- In the Route Bars, Route Spiral, Route Square and Route Maze exercises, the objective is to travel the routes within their limits with the center of pressure, following the red dots.

- In the Square, Circle, Figure Eight and Spiral exercises , the patient must reach all the points arranged in the manner indicated by the name.

- In the Follow the Dot and Moving Route exercises , the objective is to reach the moving red dot and follow it within its tolerance range.

Virtual Reality (VR) Software:

The virtual reality system is specifically designed to treat vestibular, balance, and oculomotor disorders. The system is ideal for controlling, customizing, creating, and monitoring various rehabilitation therapies through virtual reality tests and games specifically designed for patients with vestibular disorders.
