Functional Reach Test (FRT) is a clinical outcome measure and assessment tool for ascertaining dynamic balance in in simple task. As we know that this test measures the distance between the length of an outstretched arm in a maximal forward reach, while maintaining a …

2013年12月4日 · The FRT assesses a patient's stability by measuring the maximum distance an individual can reach forward while standing in a fixed position. The modified version of the FRT, requires the individual to sit in a fixed position. Instrument Details. The Functional Reach Test: Standing instructions (Weiner, D. K., Duncan, P. W., et al. (1992).

The Functional Reach Test is a single item test developed as a quick screen for balance problems in older adults. score of 6 or less indicates a significant increased risk for falls. score between 6-10 inches indicates a moderate risk for falls.

2014年8月1日 · The Functional Reach Test (FRT) is a clinical assessment of the risk of falls in elderly or disabled subjects. However, the FRT is complex (involving the leg, hip and trunk joints) and previous studies have shown that several different strategies can be …

Background: The Functional Reach Test (FRT) is a clinical assessment of the risk of falls in elderly or disabled subjects. However, the FRT is complex (involving the leg, hip and trunk joints) and previous studies have shown that several different strategies can be …

In this paper, we explore wearable technologies (i.e., real-time motion sensing) to assess fall risk using the FRT. The FRT is a quick single-task dynamic test defined as the maximal distance one can reach forward beyond arm's length, while maintaining a fixed base of …

2024年3月21日 · Essentially, the FRT is a quick test used to predict the risk of falls in older adults by measuring the margin of stability and the ability to balance during a functional task. Since the FRT measures your balance by reaching forward, the farther out of the norms for your age are—the greater the risk of falling.

roc曲线分析显示frt最佳临界值为15.2 cm，其敏感度为89.0%，特异度为79.2%，auc为0.863。 结论：FRT作为一个简便、快捷的功能性测试工具可以有效预测老年人跌倒危险。

2024年2月17日 · The functional reach test (FRT) is a clinical tool used to evaluate dynamic balance and fall risk in older adults and those with certain neurological diseases. It provides crucial information for developing rehabilitation programs to improve balance and reduce fall risk.
