AB  - This  chapter  focuses  on  standing  control  and  interventions  that  can  be  used  to  improve  standing  and  standing  balance  skills.  Careful  examination  of  the  patient's  overall  status  in  terms  of  impairments  and  activity  limitations  that  affect  standing  control  is  necessary  and  should  include  musculoskeletal  alignment,  range  of  motion  (ROM),  and  muscle  performance  (strength,  power,  endurance).  Examination  of  motor  function  (motor  control  and  motor  learning)  focuses  on  determining  the  patient's  weightbearing  status,  postural  control,  and  intactness  of  neuromuscular  synergies  required  for  static  and  dynamic  control.  Examination  of  sensory  function  includes  utilization  of  sensory  (somatosensory,  visual,  and  vestibular)  cues  for  standing  balance  control  and  central  nervous  system  (CNS)  sensory  integration  mechanisms.  Finally,  the  patient  must  be  able  to  safely  perform  functional  movements  (activities  of  daily  living  [ADL])  in  standing  in  various  environments  (clinic,  home,  work  [job/school/play],  and  community).
