Functional Testing of Vestibulo-Spinal Contributions to Balance Control: Insights From Tracking Improvement Following Acute Bilateral Peripheral Vestibular Loss

Functional Testing of Vestibulo-Spinal Contributions to Balance Control: Insights From Tracking Improvement Following Acute Bilateral Peripheral Vestibular Loss

Background: A battery of stance and gait tasks can be used to quantify functional deficits and track improvement in balance control following peripheral vestibular loss. An improvement could be due to at least 3 processes: partial peripheral recovery of sensory responses eliciting canal or otolith d...
