Insights From Sensory Organization Test on Balance Strategies and Fall Efficacy in Chronic Low Back Pain
The LBP group's higher strategy scores suggest a predominant reliance on ankle strategies to maintain balance, particularly under conditions with limited visual input during initial trials. This adaptive strategy may enhance fall efficacy by facilitating balance adjustments. These findings provide valuable insights for targeted strategies aimed at improving postural stability in the LBP group. Optimizing proprioceptive feedback and balance confidence is crucial for reducing fall risk and functional limitations.
