Table 1.
Sensory organization test.
| Conditions | Situation | Sensory consequences |
|---|---|---|
| Condition 1 (C1) | Eyes open, fixed support | - |
| Condition 2 (C2) | Eyes closed, fixed support | Vision absent |
| Condition 3 (C3) | SR surround, fixed support | Altered vision |
| Condition 4 (C4) | Eyes open, SR support | Altered proprioception |
| Condition 5 (C5) | Eyes closed, SR support | Vision absent, altered proprioception |
| Condition 6 (C6) | SR surround, SR support | Altered vision and proprioception |
| Ratios | Significance | |
| Somatosensory (RSOM) | C2/C1 | Question: does sway increase when visual cues are removed? Low scores: poor use of somatosensory references |
| Visual (RVIS) | C4/C1 | Question: does sway increase when somatosensory cues inaccurate? Low scores: poor use of visual references |
| Vestibular (RVEST) | C5/C1 | Question: does sway increase when visual cues are removed and somatosensory cues are inaccurate? Low scores: poor use of vestibular cues or vestibular cues unavailable |
