Abstract

Posturography had a role in numerous works of literature as a measurement, analysis of posture control, and body balance control. However, various literature also applied posturography as post-stroke therapy that affected balance. Accordingly, the objective of this review was to determine the utility of posturography in the treatment of post-stroke balance. For the period 2012 to 2022, relevant English-language study strategies such as “posturography”, “balance,” and “stroke” were available through databases such as ScienceDirect, PEDro, and PubMed. The inclusion criteria for this review were an article with an RCT method for stroke patients who had more than one week of treatment with posturography. The study applied the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome) framework, which was developed as a critical component in the review process. A total of six articles correspond to the criteria, with an average PEDro score of 5.6. Posturography can analyze and identify the patients’ balance control. Posturography for the intervention revealed a significant improvement in balance as measured by the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and Falling Index (FI) with p < 0.05 when comparing before and after treatment. Posturography was generally applied to measure balance in post-stroke patients, but it can be employed as an intervention. However, the reason was that limited articles focused on the role of posturography as a post-stroke intervention. Thus, more research is required.
