In a normal, healthy system we maintain standing posture through feedback from our visual, muscular, and vestibular (inner ear) systems. When any of these systems (or the communication bridges between these systems) becomes dysfunctional it can negatively affect standing posture and contributes to a person becoming at risk of falling. Standing posture is a measure which is sensitive to changes following exposures to drugs and traumatic brain injury. Both of these are relevant to a military population. To test standing posture a person stands upon a force platform (a metal plate) with their eyes open and then with their eyes closed. This test is safe, non-invasive, and fast. Objectives Goals: The goal of this request is to obtain a force platform which has been FDA approved for use in a clinical population with traumatic brain injury. How end product will be used: This product will be used to supplement and enhance the standard clinical care provided at the WRIISC. The ability to include tests of standing posture will help identify patients who may be at an increased risk for falls, and will thus enhance our current clinical care. Period of Performance The contractor shall complete the work required under this SOW in 30 calendar days or less from date of award, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer (CO). If the contractor proposes an earlier completion date, and the Government accepts the contractor s proposal, the contractor s proposed completion date shall prevail.
