Timed Up and Go (TUG) TestThe Timed Up and Go test, commonly known as TUG, is a crucial tool for assessing an individual's mobility and balance. This straightforward test, widely used in clinical and research settings, consists of several key steps designed to evaluate a person's ability to stand up, walk, and sit down again.Test Steps:1. Seated Start: The individual begins by sitting comfortably on a chair.2. Standing Up: The person rises from the chair.3. Walking: They walk a short distance, typically about three meters, to a designated point.4. Turning: At the designated point, they turn around.5. Returning: They walk back to the starting point.6. Sitting Down: Finally, they sit down again on the chair.Applications of the TUG Test:- Fall Risk Assessment: Especially critical for older adults or those at risk of falling.- Mobility Evaluation: Indicates the person's movement capability and speed.- Balance Problem Diagnosis: Helps identify balance issues.- Therapeutic Planning: The results can guide specialists in developing suitable physical therapy or exercise programs to enhance mobility and balance.The Image You See:The image showcases the stages before and after performing the TUG test.
