Center of pressure motion after calf vibration is more random in fallers than non-fallers: prospective study of older individuals
Aging is associated with changes in balance control and elderly take longer to adapt to
changing sensory conditions, which may increase falls risk. Low amplitude calf muscle
vibration stimulates local sensory afferents/receptors and affects sense of upright when
applied in stance. It has been used to assess the extent the nervous system relies on calf
muscle somatosensory information and to rapidly change/perturb part of the somatosensory
information causing balance unsteadiness by addition and removal of the vibratory stimulus …
