Static posturography was used to study balance in elderly individuals, with a focus on fall risk. The study compared postural assessments with eyes open and closed for 100 participants aged 65 and older, including both fallers and non-fallers. Results showed that all measures of front-to-back movement and overall center of pressure speed were higher with eyes closed compared to eyes open, for both groups. Side-to-side center of pressure speed was also higher with eyes closed for fallers. The biggest increase from eyes open to eyes closed was seen in front-to-back speed. These findings suggest that front-to-back posturography measures are sensitive to changes in balance when visual input is removed. No significant differences were found between fallers and non-fallers in this study.
