Abstract
Abstract Aims The aim of this study is to determine a cutoff value of the calf-raise senior test and dual-calf-raise senior test according to fall history. Methods 150 elderly individuals participated in descriptive study. Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), Functional Reach Test (FRT), Calf-Raise Senior Test (CRST) and Calf-Raise Senior Test with additional cognitive task (dual- CRST) were applied. Results It was found to be high correlation between CRST and the BBS ,medium with TUG, and high with FRT . It was found to be high correlation dual-CRST and the BBS,medium with the TUG and high with FRT. According to the fall history, the cutoff value for the CRST was found 18.3 repetitions and 11.5 repetitions for the dual-CRST. Conclusion The present study has contributed significantly to the literature in terms of determining the cutoff value for fall risk in the CRST and dual-CRS.
期刊介绍:
This comprehensive journal is recognized for its useful balance of research and clinical practice articles. For more than twenty five years Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics has functioned as a forum for allied health professionals as well as others with a focus on rehabilitation of the geriatric client to share information, clinical experience, research, and therapeutic practice. Each issue focuses on current practice and emerging issues in the care of the older client, including rehabilitation and long-term care in institutional and community settings, and innovative programming; the entire range of problems experienced by the elderly; and the current skills needed for working with older clients.
