To investigate preseason modified Balance Error Scoring System (mBESS) performance in a collegiate football cohort; to compare scores to an objective mobile balance measurement tool.
MATERIALS & METHODS: Eighty-two athletes completed simultaneous balance testing using mBESS and the King-Devick Balance Test, an objective balance measurement tool. Errors on mBESS and objective measurements in the double-leg, single-leg (SS) and tandem stances were compared.
Mean mBESS error score was 7.23 ± 4.65. The SS accounted for 74% of errors and 21% of athletes demonstrated the maximum error score. There was no significant correlation between mBESS score and objective balance score.
The high variability and large number of errors in the SS raises concerns over the utility of the SS in identifying suspected concussion.
研究大学橄榄球运动员群体季前改良版平衡误差评分系统(mBESS)的表现;将分数与客观的移动平衡测量工具进行比较。
82名运动员同时使用mBESS和King-Devick平衡测试(一种客观的平衡测量工具)完成平衡测试。比较了mBESS上的误差以及双腿、单腿(SS)和串联站立姿势下的客观测量结果。
mBESS平均误差分数为7.23±4.65。单腿站立姿势占误差的74%,21%的运动员表现出最大误差分数。mBESS分数与客观平衡分数之间无显著相关性。
单腿站立姿势下的高变异性和大量误差引发了对其在识别疑似脑震荡方面效用的担忧。
