What CDP measures
Computerized Dynamic Posturography evaluates how a patient maintains balance under changing sensory conditions. The platform and visual surround can alter the reliability of body-sense and visual cues, helping identify whether a patient is over-relying on one system or struggling to integrate multiple balance inputs.
Why it is useful
CDP is especially helpful when symptoms include unsteadiness, falls, gait imbalance, visual dependence, or persistent dizziness after vestibular injury. Results can guide vestibular rehabilitation priorities and provide a baseline for tracking progress.
What patients can expect
- You stand on a computerized platform with safety support.
- Different conditions challenge eyes-open, eyes-closed, surface, and visual-stability balance strategies.
- The output helps translate balance complaints into measurable sensory-control patterns.
