Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Clinical Biomechanics

Background:

  • Posturography is crucial for balance assessment.
  • Validated, accessible software is needed for widespread clinical and research use.
  • Open-source solutions can democratize access to advanced assessment tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate open-source posturography software named RombergLab.
  • To assess the reliability and concordance of RombergLab against a clinical-grade system.
  • To make the software's source code publicly available.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective non-randomized validation study was conducted.
  • Twenty adults performed six-condition posturography tests.
  • Measurements were taken using both a clinical-approved software/force platform and the developed RombergLab with a low-cost force platform; intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) of sway area was the primary metric.

Main Results:

  • RombergLab demonstrated excellent concordance with the clinical system, achieving an ICC of 0.94.
  • Bland and Altman plots confirmed the agreement between the two systems.
  • The source code for RombergLab was successfully published as open-source.

Conclusions:

  • The developed RombergLab software meets the validation goal for balance assessment software.
  • The software's reliability is influenced by the technical specifications of the force platform used.
  • RombergLab represents a validated, open-source tool for posturography.
