[Posturographic rapid diagnosis of a vestibular function in vestibulology].

The integral index of equilibrium function (IIEF) was proposed for rapid diagnosis of the equilibrium function. Calculation of IIEF is based on comparison of the results of resting stabilometry in European position of the patient's feet with those of functional tests (optostimulation, sight deprivation, Romberg's position with sight deprivation). Calculations of stability and dynamic component indices were made using the parameter of the deviation rate of the pressure center of a human body standing on the stabilometer platform. IIEF was estimated in 118 healthy subjects aged from 17 to 82 years. Age- and sex-related differences in some age groups were studied.

[Functional characteristics of gait and standing posture in poststroke patients in residual period].

Using biomechanic method, gait and standing posture were studied in 17 stroke patients in a remote poststroke period. The locomotor system was found to have non-specific compensatory changes to optimize motor functions and reduce functional disturbances. Symptoms of the triceps surae muscle insufficiency as well as a balance deficit at standing posture and displacement of the center of pressure towards the non-affected side were characteristic of the given stage of rehabilitation stroke period that should be taken into account during the rehabilitation treatment.
