The present research aimed to assess the reliability of commonly used<br />clinical measures of balance and to investigate the effect of age, height, weight and<br />BMI on performing clinical balance tests. For this purpose, 133 participants (age<br />range 18-59 yr) who had at least 3 sessions of sport activity per week, participated<br />in this research. Clinical balance tests included finger-to-nose (FTN), single leg<br />stance (SLS), tandem stance and time-up-and-go (TUG). The results showed that<br />the first performance of each three trials was slower. The relationship between<br />some factors and these balance tests were examined. The results revealed that FTN<br />and TUG especially TUG test were the most stable measure to assess sports<br />related concussion The postural control system is a complex motor system which is formed based<br />on an interaction of different dynamic processes and many laboratory techniques<br />recognize performance disorders using a wide range of neurological signs and<br />symptoms.
