Romberg & Sharpened Romberg Tests EXPLAINED

The video tutorial explains two balance and stability tests: the Romberg and sharpened Romberg tests. These tests are used to assess proprioceptive and vestibular deficits in neurological patients. The Romberg test involves standing with feet together and eyes open or closed, while the sharpened Romberg test requires a tandem stance. The tests help identify issues with balance systems, particularly when visual input is removed. The sharpened Romberg is more challenging and is used when further assessment is needed after a normal Romberg test result.
