dual-task balance assessment

Dual-task balance assessment evaluates how well a person can maintain their balance while performing two tasks simultaneously, such as standing still while talking or counting. This test helps identify how multitasking affects stability and can highlight challenges some individuals face, especially those at risk of falls or with balance issues. By analyzing performance under dual-task conditions, clinicians can better understand the integration of cognitive and physical functions, guiding personalized strategies to improve safety and functional independence.
