The effect sizes for the physical function measures PFIT-s, FSS-ICU, 10 m walking speed, 6MWT, and functional reach were 0.73, 1.19, 0.33, 1.09 and 0.99, respectively.
Subjects performed 3 consecutive functional reach trials.
Overall, functional reach differences in Mexican American women were found to be more pronounced than functional reach differences in Mexican American men.
Changes in dynamic trunk/head stability and functional reach after hippotherapy.
To provide normative reference values for the standing functional reach test for older adults.
Long-term exercise improved balance (mean difference in functional reach test 5.2 cm, 95% CI 0.5 to 9.9, I2 = 76%).
The ReHabgame was developed based on two third-person video games that provide a feasible possibility of assessing postural control and functional reach tests.
Main Outcome Measures: Unipedal stance time, functional reach, tandem stance time, and score on the activities-specific balance and confidence (ABC) scale.
Behrman AL, Light KE, Flynn SM, Thigpen MT. Is the Functional Reach Test useful for identifying falls risk among individuals with Parkinson's disease?
Posture, pull test, balance during stance, single limb stance, tandem stance, turning, toe walking and functional reach had significant correlation with Balance Master data (R=0.46 1).
The correlation with the Short Form of Health Survey (SF-36), Timed Up and Go (TUG) and Functional Reach Test (FRT) was also determined to test validity.
