Résumé : |
ndividuals with Parkinson disease (PD) develop impairments in balance and gait that can lead to postural instability and falls. Studies indicate that 60% of individuals with PD fall in a 12-month period.1 These falls are associated with increased risk of hip fractures, nursing home admissions, and reduced survival rates.2,3 The Mini Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini BESTest), a shortened version of the BESTest, was developed to assess elements of postural control thought to underlie postural instability.4,5 14-item Mini BESTest can be administered in 10 to 15 minutes, and addresses 4 of the 6 constructs included in the BESTest: anticipatory control, reactive postural control, sensory orientation, and dynamic gait. The Mini BESTest exhibits excellent reliability and validity across stages of PD, can discriminate between fallers and non-fallers, and is responsive to change with rehabilitation interventions.5 This Rehabilitation Measures Database summary provides a review of the psychometric properties of the Mini BESTest in community-dwelling older adults and individuals living with PD. A full review of the Mini BESTest as well as reviews of more than 100 other instruments can be found at www.rehabmeasures.org. |
