Bertec Cobalt

COBALT

COBALT™ is a balance test for athletes. COBALT can be used as part of a concussion screening and management program by providing an objective measure of balance control when relying on visual, somatosensory and vestibular demands. The patented COBALT protocol includes a unique set of testing conditions that places high demands on the visual and vestibular systems that traditional static balance testing does not provide. Research shows these more difficult conditions yield sensitivity in identifying individuals with suspected concussion.

  • Brief screening test designed for athletes
  • Challenging but achievable
  • Provides objective data about balance performance using accurate measurements with a dual-balance force plate
  • Objective postural sway data combined with simplified scoring system
  • Standardized test conditions, including head turn and visual motion sensitivity
  • Fully portable

 

Brochure

COBALT was specifically developed for the brief screening of athletes as part of a concussion management program. Utilize COBALT as part of a concussion screening and management program by providing an objective measure of balance control when relying on visual, somatosensory, and vestibular demands.

COBALT benefits include: eight standardized test conditions (including head turn and visual motion sensitivity as well as conditions to increase vestibular challenge), pre-season baseline testing (using a four-condition screening version), and sensitivity to changes in performance.

The Bertec dual-balance force plate is durable and portable allowing for highly accurate and reliable data collection under the most rigorous testing environments.
