2. ABOUT THE ZIBRIO SMARTSCALE AND
ZIBRIO BALANCE TEST
The ZIBRIO SmartScale measures balance with the ZIBRIO
Balance Test. During the test, the subject stands with both feet
on the scale and their eyes open, making it possible for non-
specialists to test their own balance without outside help. Balance
is measured in Brios, on a scale from 1 to 10. Ten Brios represents
the best possible balance across the human population. 1-3 Brios is
associated with an increased risk of falling in adults ages 65 and up.
The SmartScale also measures weight.
Score of 7 – 10 Brios: low risk of falling (green zone)
Score of 4 – 6 Brios: medium risk of falling (yellow zone)
Score of 1 – 3 Brios: increased risk of falling (red zone)
In a ZIBRIO study of over 300 adults, people who scored between
1 to 3 Brios were 3 times more likely to experience a fall in the next
12 months compared to people who scored between 7 and 10 Brios.
Your Balance Score and your Balance Profile are provided as
information about your balance and the habits that affect it.
Remember that your balance can change from one day to the next.
Having poor balance can result from a variety of causes, and this
device is not intended to diagnose or treat any disease or condition.
Always consult your physician to determine what is best for your
health.
