“…균형 능력은 신체의 기저면 위에 무게중심(Center of pressure, COP)을 유지하는 능력으로 일상생활 동작에 중 요한 기본적 요소이다 [1]. 균형의 손상은 건강한 사람이 라 할지라도 기능적 제한을 가져오며 균형능력을 평가하 는 것은 낙상의 위험을 예측할 수 있는 정보를 제공한다 [2].…”

Balance is the foundation for all active daily livings. Evaluation of balance has been conducted to measure postural sway of center of pressure(COP). The purpose of this study is to introduce the Balancia and to examine the validity and inter-, intra-reliability for measure of balance with stroke patients. COP was measured by Wii balance board. The subjects Participated in this study were 39 stroke patients. Intra-and inter-reliability was examined using intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC) with 95% confidence interval. In the result of intra-and inter-reliability, all COP parameters of postural sway showed high to very high reliability with ICC=.793-.939 and ICC=.791-.955. Validity was determined by correlation with Accusway force plate. There were high validity with ICC=.851-.955 between tools. According to these results, the Balancia showed high validity and reliability. It is a useful clinical tool for evaluating balance in stroke patients.

“…Balance is divided into static balance and dynamic balance. Static balance refers to the ability to stand still on a static basis, and dynamic balance refers to the ability to maintain balance while performing motions on a dynamic basis (Ragnarsdóttir, 1996).…”

“…Postural control or balance is described as a capacity for making adjusts or maintaining adjusts in order to keep gravity center of body on support ground (13). Balance is the adjustment of muscular function and joint function and the protection of body gravity center in order to maintain the required function (16). Factors such as height, weight, gender and sport activity may affect balance performance (5).…”

The aim of this study was to examine postural balance control in hudo and handball players. A total of 50 healthy athletes th at are judo and handball players participated as volunteer. The mean (SD) age was 20.96 ± 1.18 years, height was 1.66 ± 0.07 mm, and weight was 60.26 ± 0.07 kg for the 23 female athletes; the mean (SD) age was 21.82 ± 1.77 years, height was 1.77 ± 0.07 m, and weight was 83.66 ± 19.65 kg for the 27 male athletes. Postural balance control was evaluated using the single-legged Flamingo balance test. No significant differences were observed for female and male (P>0.05). On the other hand, we found significant differences for judo and handball players as generally (P<0.05). Also, we found significant differences between judo and handball for male athletes (P<0.05) and judo and handball for female athletes (P<0.05). However, we found significant differences between male judoka and female judoka (P<0.05). On the other hand, there are no significant differences between male handball players and female handball players (P>0.05). In conclusion, it was found that postural balance control of judoka is better than handball players' postural balance control. Also, it was less postural balance control of female judoka than postural balance control of female handball players. In male athletes, this was the exact opposite.
