Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) Balance Test and Chair Stand Test

The SPPB consists of 3 components that together test leg strength, gait, and balance. Gait speed is measured in meters per second at the individual’s usual walking speed with or without an assistive device (see Video 1 -    • Measuring Gait Speed for Fall Risk Assessment  ). The balance test assesses the ability to stand for 10 seconds with feet in 3 different positions (together side by side, semi-tandem, and tandem). The Chair Stand Test measures the time needed to stand from a seated position 5 consecutive times with the arms crossed over the chest. Although formal scoring for the SPPB components is used in research, for the purposes of falls screening those with difficulty on any of the 3 components should be referred to physical therapy and/or a fall-prevention exercise program focusing on leg strength and balance.
