Human posture control is maintained by proprioceptive, vestibular and visual feedback integrated within the central vestibular and locomotor system. Lesions to the sensory feedback system, or to the central nervous system, may impair postural control and equilibrium. It is therefore of interest to assess the ability of postural control by measuring the displacement of the body center of gravity. Recordings of the amplitude and frequency of spontaneous oscillations around the equilibrium position may describe the sway and thus the control of posture.

Abstract

Human posture control is maintained by proprioceptive, vestibular and visual feedback integrated within the central vestibular and locomotor system. Lesions to the sensory feedback system, or to the central nervous system, may impair postural control and equilibrium. It is therefore of interest to assess the ability of postural control by measuring the displacement of the body center of gravity. Recordings of the amplitude and frequency of spontaneous oscillations around the equilibrium position may describe the sway and thus the control of posture.
