Objective
[edit | edit source]
The Balance Outcome Measure for Elder Rehabilitation (BOOMER) was developed to assist in clinical practice to quantify standing balance.[1] The combination of a variety of single item outcome measures make the BOOMER a highly feasible and applicable tool that is both time and resource efficient.[1]
The BOOMER consists of the following four tests;
- Timed static stance feet together eyes closed
- Functional reach (FR)
- Step test - Foot placed on top of a 7.5cm step and returned to the ground. Performed as many times as able in 15 sec.
- Timed up and go (TUG) - From a seated position, individual stands, walks 3m, turn 180°, walks 3m back to chair and sits with back resting against the back rest
Intended Population
[edit | edit source]
Older adults with deficiencies in standing balance.[2]
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
The four components of the BOOMER are performed in one session. Areas of interest are identified with treatment continued as appropriate.
Results[edit | edit source]
An individual's performance on each measure will be converted to a 5-point ordinal scale (0 - 4). The scale ranges from 0 (unable to perform the test (or 0 on FR)) to 4 (excellent) with a maximum score of 16.[2]
Table: BOOMER scoring[2]
| Tests | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| Step test (ave) | Unable | 0 - 5 | 5 - 8 | 8 - 12 | >12 |
| TUG (sec) | Unable | ≥ 30 |
29 - 20 | 19 - 10 | <10 |
| FR (cm) | 0 | 1 - 15 | 16 - 20 | 21 - 30 | > 30 |
| Standing (eyes closed) (sec) | Unable | 0 - 30 | 30 - 60 | 60 - <90 | 90 |
Evidence
[edit | edit source]
Comparison to similar tests; Function instrument motor score (FIM) and Modified elderly mobility scale (MEMS)[1]
Good correlation with motor FIM (admission p=.73 and discharge p=.72)
Good correlation with MEMS (admission p=.88 and discharge p=.83)
p = Spearman p correlation coefficient
