This exploratory study investigated the use of the Wii Balance Board and other clinical-based measures for prospectively predicting falls among community-dwelling older adults.
(…)
Seventy-three community-dwelling men and women, aged 60-85years were followed-up over a year for falls.
(…)
The Wii Balance Board-derived anteroposterior sway velocity measure could complement existing clinical-based measures in predicting future falls among community-dwelling older adults.
