This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at whether a balance test for older adults (the Fullerton Advanced Balance Scale) gives the same results when done over a video call as it does in person. Researchers will test 52 people aged 65+ using both methods to see if remote assessments are reliable. The goal is to make fall-risk checks easier for seniors who can't easily visit a clinic.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study will recruit community-dwelling older adults aged 65 years and above who are able to walk without assistance or with an assistive device. Participants must have a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 24 or higher and possess adequate vision and hearing to understand test instructions. They must also have access to the necessary technology and environment to participate in video-based tele-assessment. Individuals with recent acute conditions affecting balance, advanced neurological or orthopedic disorders, significant systemic medical instability, severe psychiatric illness, or insufficient technical/social support for tele-assessment will be excluded.

Inclusion Criteria: * Being 65 years of age or older * Able to walk independently, even if using an assistive device * Having a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of ≥ 24 * Having adequate vision and hearing (able to read and understand test instructions and information materials) * Having the necessary technical equipment and a suitable environment to participate in video conference assessments * Providing voluntary written informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * History of acute conditions in the past month that may temporarily affect balance (e.g., lower limb trauma, ankle sprain, acute vestibular problems) * History of advanced neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, or stroke sequelae * Serious orthopedic problems limiting lower limb function (e.g., recent surgery, significant movement restriction) * Systemic medical instability that may affect balance, such as uncontrolled diabetes or advanced heart failure * Psychiatric disorders severe enough to significantly impair communication or the assessment process * Insufficient technical equipment, environmental support, or social resources to participate in the tele-assessment process
