Berg Balance Scale (BBS) Items are scored on a rating scale of 0 to 4 with a total score range of 0 to 56. Total scores of 0 to 20 indicate a high risk for falls, 21 to 40 indicate a moderate risk, and 41 to 56 indicate a low risk in adults with vestibular dysfunction. Administration time is 15 to 20 minutes.

A score of 56 indicates functional balance. A score of < 45 indicates individuals may be at greater risk of falling.

While the Berg Balance Scale can be used across several populations, it is essential for therapists to know that the BBS is reliable and valid for their client's specific population. For example, the BBS scores for patients with spinal cord injuries do not actually predict patient fall risk.

The highest possible score is 56. The Berg balance scale test takes about 15 to 20 minutes to complete.

Berg Balance Scale score (≤50 points), Timed Up and Go times (≥12 seconds), and 5 times sit-to-stand times (≥12) seconds are currently the most evidence-supported functional measures to determine individual risk of future falls.

For functional balance tests, the BBS is generally considered to be the gold standard. The test takes 15–20 minutes and comprises a set of 14 simple balance related tasks, ranging from standing up from a sitting position, to standing on one foot.

A total score of 0-20 reflects mobility by wheelchair, 21 to 40 walking with assistance, and a score of 41 to 56 walking independently.

BBS is widely used and has been coined the “gold standard” of balance assessment tools [66].
