The goal of this protocol is to inform readers about the exact procedures to use to perform two screening tests for vestibular disorders: tandem walking (TW) with eyes closed, also known as heel-toe walking, and the Clinical Test of Sensory Integration and Balance (CTSIB), which is also known as the modified Romberg. The study describes the steps for performing each test and each of the three CTSIB subtests so that the reader will be able to replicate the test conditions for use in the clinic, in the clinical laboratory, or in any other situation needing valid and reliable screening for balance skill which might be affected by changes in vestibular system function. The procedures detailed here can be easily administered and take less than 1 min per trial. References to published papers with normative data are provided. The representative results section includes examples of data collected with these screening tests.
闭眼串联行走（TW），也称为足跟-脚尖行走，以及临床感觉统合和平衡测试（CTSIB），也称为改良 Romberg 测试。本研究描述了进行每项测试和 CTSIB 三个分量测试中的每个分量测试的步骤，以便读者能够复制测试条件，以便在诊所、临床实验室或任何其他需要有效和可靠的平衡技能筛查的情况下使用，这些情况可能受到前庭系统功能变化的影响。这里详细介绍的程序易于实施，每个试验耗时不到 1 分钟。提供了具有正态数据的已发表论文的参考文献。代表性结果部分包括使用这些筛查测试收集的数据示例。
