Berg Balance Scale (BBS)<br />
�<br />
�<br />
�<br />
<strong>The</strong> BBS measures balance in older adults <strong>and</strong><br />
stroke survivors<br />
In this 14-item scale, patients must maintain<br />
positions <strong>and</strong> complete moving tasks of varying<br />
difficulty. In most items, patients must maintain<br />
a given position for a specified time.<br />
41-56 on the BBS represents good balance.<br />
