1 The Relationship Between Falls History and Computerized Dynamic Posturography in Persons With Balance and Vestibular Disorders  Susan L. Whitney, PhD, PT, NCS, ATC, Gregory F. Marchetti, PhD, PT, Annika I. Schade, MD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 87, Issue 3, Pages (March 2006) DOI: /j.apmr Copyright © 2006 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Mean ABC scores with 95% CIs for patients stratified by self-reported falls history for 6 months prior to the start of PT (recurrent faller, 1-time faller, nonfaller). *Significant difference (P<.01).

3 Fig 2 The mean composite SOT scores with the 95% CIs for patient stratified by self-reported fall status (recurrent, 1-time, nonfaller). *Significant difference (P<.01).

4 Fig 3 ROC curve (with point of highest likelihood ratio) for the discrimination of patients with self-reported recurrent fall history from patients with no history of self-reported falls using the SOT score. Area under curve equals .75 (P<.01). Diagonal line indicates the area of no discrimination. *Cutoff below 38 points as the location of the maximum likelihood ratio (4.12).
