چکیده انگلیسی
Multi-directional reach test (MRT) emerged as a valid and reliable assessment tool for balance evaluation among elderly. The normative reference scores have been established in adults and elderly people, but they were not yet established for children. Hence, we aimed at establishing the normative reference scores of MRT among the school going children aged between 5 and 12â¯years. Children (Nâ¯=â¯194; 124 males, 70 females) were recruited by the stratified random sampling for the normative study. MRT was performed by the custom made, multi-directional reach estimator. MRE device consists of three adjustable wooden frames with two metallic rulers each of 600â¯mm. Children were asked to reach maximum distance in forward reach (FR), backward reach (BR), right lateral reach (RLR) and left lateral reach (LLR) directions to obtain their maximum reaching ability. The mean of three readings were used to report the normative reference scores of MRT. Median age, height, weight and body mass index (BMI) were 8.5â¯years, 1240â¯mm, 27â¯kg and 17.24â¯kg/m2 respectively. The normative reference scores [median (95% confidence Interval, CI)] of MRT among the children aged 5-12â¯years old were FR [169.7â¯mm (CI, 166.1-183.3â¯mm)], BR [77.7â¯mm (CI, 78.0-85.5â¯mm)], RLR [122.0â¯mm (119.6-130.9â¯mm)] and LLR [107.0 (105.8-119.3â¯mm)] respectively.
