UNASSIGNED: Individuals with @entity227 ( @entity227 ) have irreparable damage to one of the input streams contributing to postural stability. Here, we evaluated the intra-session test-retest reliability of the Wii Balance Board (WBB) for measuring @entity551 ( @entity551 ) magnitude and structure, i.e. approximate entropy (ApEn) in fourteen legally blind @entity1 and 21 @entity1 with corrected-to-normal vision. @entity1 completed a validated balance protocol which included four sensory conditions: double-leg standing on a firm surface with eyes open (EO-firm); a firm surface with eyes closed (EC-firm); a foam surface with EO (EO-foam); and a foam surface with EC (EC-foam). @entity1 performed the full balance protocol twice during the session, separated by a period of 15min, to determine the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Absolute reliability was determined by the @entity2246 ( @entity2246 ). The @entity1987 ( @entity1987 ) was estimated to determine clinical significance for future studies. @entity551 measures were derived from data sent by the WBB to a laptop via Bluetooth. @entity551 scores increased with the difficulty of sensory condition indicating WBB sensitivity (all p<0.01). ICCs in the @entity227 group ranged from 0.73 to 0.95, indicating high to very high correlations, and the normal group showed moderate to very high ICCs (0.62-0.94). The @entity2246 was comparable between groups regardless of between-subject variability. The reliability of the WBB makes it practical to screen for @entity73 among @entity227 @entity1 .
