    The document provides a grading scale to assess balance in both static and dynamic sitting and standing positions, rating abilities on a scale from normal to poor. Balance is evaluated based on a person's ability to maintain their position against varying levels of resistance and to shift their weight and cross midlines. Functional ranges of motion are also measured for various movements and compared to normal ranges.

    Objective: Balance Grading Review

    Static Sitting Dynamic Sitting


    Normal Able to maintain balance Normal Able to sit unsupported & weight shift
    against maximal resistance across midline maximally

    Good Able to maintain balance Good Able to sit unsupported & weight shift
    against moderate resistance across midline moderately

    G-/F+ Able to sit unsupported and weight


    G-/F+ Accepts minimal resistance
    shift across midline minimally

    Fair Able to sit unsupported without Fair Minimal weight shifting


    balance loss and without UE ipsilateral/front, difficulty crossing
    support midline
    Poor+ Able to maintain with minimal Fair- Reach to ipsilateral side and unable to
    assistance from individual or weight shift
    chair Poor+ Able to sit unsupported with min A and
    reach to ipsilateral side, unable to
    Poor Unable to maintain balance – weight shift
    requires mod/max support Poor Able to sit unsupported with Mod A
    from individual or chair and reach ipsilateral/front – can’t cross
    midline
    Objective: Balance Grading Review
    Static Standing Dynamic Standing
    Normal Able to maintain standing balance Normal Stand independently unsupported,
    against maximal resistance able to weight shift and cross
    midline maximally
    Good Able to maintain standing balance Good Stand independently unsupported,
    against moderate resistance able to weight shift and cross
    G-/F+ Able to maintain standing balance midline moderately
    against minimal resistance G-/F+ Stand independently unsupported,
    able to weight shift across midline
    Fair Able to stand unsupported without minimally
    UE support and without LOB for 1- Fair Stand independently unsupported,
    2 min weight shift, and reach ipsilaterally,
    Fair- Requires Min A or UE support in LOB when crossing midline
    order to stand without LOB
    Poor+ Able to stand with Min A and reach
    Poor+ Requires Mod A and UE support to ipsilaterally, unable to weight shift
    maintain standing without balance
    loss Poor Able to stand with Mod A and
    Poor Requires Max A and UE support to minimally reach ipsilaterally, unable
    maintain standing balance without to cross midline
