Doc D Concussion & Sports Medicine Clinic
The severity of a mild to moderate concussion (or mTBI) can be difficult to diagnose. Up until now this condition was also difficult to rehab.
Doc D consulting has a unique FDA certified system that can do both, IsoBALANCE.
The IsoBALANCE plate has 6 pressure transistors for highly accurate measurement of postural and balance control. The system is equipped with CHOICE and MAZE, 5 minute interactive evaluation tools to analyze a patients’ problem solving, short term memory, and strategy and planning ability. Rehabilitation tools include SPELL & PATHWAY, interactive software that challenges the patient’s postural control.
How The IsoBALANCE Works
1) Subject steps onto the highly sensitive, calibrated balance plate with feet placed on the marked guides
2) The test begins with the subject instructed to stand still for 30 seconds and then a second test is taken with the subject instructed to close their eyes while standing still for 30 seconds.
3) Biofeedback from the plate coupled with the Balance Score application and IsoGATE data portal gives a report and records baseline data on the subjects balance and center of gravity. It can then compare the subject on a relative demographic scale including measures of sex, height, weight, age and other factors.
4) The subject takes the “MAZE cognition assessment” (part of Balance score application) test while the application records baseline data. This test assesses motor control and eye movement.
5) The subject then takes the “CHOICE cognition assessment” (part of Balance score application) test while the application records baseline data. This test assesses short term memory and decision making
6) The final report and data is collected and stored on a HIPAA compliant server for physician guided diagnostics and baseline comparison later on.
