Turkish Version of Mini-BESTest- Balance Evaluation Systems Test: A Translation and Transcultural Adaptation Study Incorporating Validity and Reliability Analysis for Adult Participants With Sensoriomotor Impairments

The aim of this study is to present the Turkish version of miniBESTest which evaluates the reasons of balance deficit and postural control. Accordingly, a practice of validity and reliability on adult patients with sensoriomotor impairments will be performed by utilizing the Turkish version of miniBESTest in this study.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Conditions

Detailed Description

Physical therapists encounter postural control problems frequently. These problems require multifaceted assessment. Therefore, the treatment of postural control problems should be planned after a multifaceted assessment.

Balance Evaluation Systems Test (BESTest) comprises 27 items and evaluate all components of postural control. MiniBESTest is a shortened version of BESTest with 14 tasks. MiniBESTest still addresses almost all components of postural control and can be performed 15 min. MiniBESTest is one of the most common methods which practiced on adult patients.

The aim of this study is to present the Turkish version of miniBESTest which evaluates the reasons of balance deficit and postural control. Accordingly, a practice of validity and reliability on adult participants with sensoriomotor impairments will be performed by utilizing the Turkish version of miniBESTest in this study.
