In Pediatrics, balance is assessed through low-sensitivity clinical tests which identify developmental alterations at already advanced stages that cannot be detected at earlier stages. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop an easily applicable quantitative tool that can be used to evaluate postural control. Consequently, a cross-sectional study was carried out with 91 healthy children. All of them performed a series of six accelerometric functional tests and four clinical tests of balance (Modified Flamingo Test, Bar Test, Babinski-Weil Test, and Fukuda Stepping Test). The Bar Test obtained mild inverse correlations with accelerations produced in the mediolateral axis and the root mean square of all the tests in monopodal support. The Flamingo Test obtained direct correlations with the root mean square of the tests in monopodal support and with the mediolateral axis of the monopodal tests and gait. The pediatric balance assessment scale consists of three factors and eleven items extracted from five accelerometric functional tests: the monopodal balance test with six items, normal gait test with three items, and bipodal balance test with two items. This tool is easy to apply and allows analysis in the evaluation of the balance state based on the accelerations of the center of mass.
在儿科学中，平衡是通过低灵敏度的临床测试来评估的，这些测试能识别出已经处于晚期阶段的发育改变，而这些改变在早期阶段是无法检测到的。因此，本研究的目的是开发一种易于应用的定量工具，可用于评估姿势控制。为此，对91名健康儿童进行了一项横断面研究。他们所有人都进行了一系列六项加速度计功能测试和四项平衡临床测试（改良火烈鸟测试、横杆测试、巴宾斯基 - 韦尔测试和福田踏步测试）。横杆测试与单足支撑时在内外侧轴上产生的加速度以及所有测试的均方根呈轻度负相关。火烈鸟测试与单足支撑时测试的均方根以及单足测试和步态的内外侧轴呈正相关。儿科平衡评估量表由三个因素和十一个项目组成，这些项目从五项加速度计功能测试中提取：六项的单足平衡测试、三项的正常步态测试和两项的双足平衡测试。该工具易于应用，并允许基于质心加速度对平衡状态进行评估分析。
