Age-related changes in static and dynamic postural balance performance
Age-related changes in balance control are task dependent. Older adults preserved static balance performance but demonstrated impaired reactive balance responses in dynamic tasks. Furthermore, static and dynamic balance rely on distinct control mechanisms, highlighting the need for separate assessments.
