Analysis of the Ability to Maintain the Balance of Veterans of Stabilization Missions

The article deals with measurements of ability to maintain the balance conducted for soldiers who were wounded during combat missions. Measurements were carried out both in real and virtual environment. Tests in the real environments were performed with open and closed eyes. Tests in the virtual environment were performed with the use of spatial sceneries which were immobile or were oscillating in AP direction. Analysis of results was conducted both in time domain and frequency domain. All results were compared with the literature results obtained for healthy people. Results obtained for soldiers differed from the results of healthy people. According to the obtained results, it can be concluded that the studies of the ability to maintain the balance should be carried out both in static and dynamic conditions, and the analysis of the obtained results should be carried out both in time and frequency domain.
