This study aimed to investigate the influence of three stimulating surfaces based on center of pressure (CoP), anteroposterior sway velocity (V(A/P)), and medio-lateral sway velocity (V(M/L)) of 40 elderly subjects. CoP and V(M/L) showed a significant decrease in all visual conditions only in the stimulating surface whereas V(A/P) showed a significant decrease only on the same surface with eyes open. Results confirm the importance of multisensory stimulation in postural control in the elderly.
本研究旨在调查基于40名老年受试者的压力中心(CoP)、前后摆动速度(V(A/P))和左右摆动速度(V(M/L))的三种刺激表面的影响。仅在刺激表面上,CoP和V(M/L)在所有视觉条件下均显著降低,而V(A/P)仅在睁眼时在同一表面上显著降低。结果证实了多感官刺激在老年人姿势控制中的重要性。
