To make a diagnosis, your health care provider will ask about your medical history and do a physical exam. This will include checking your bones and muscles and doing a neurological exam. In some cases, you may have other tests, such as lab or imaging tests.
The Rhomberg test is positive when the patient has a loss of balance with their eyes closed. Loss of balance can be defined as the increased swaying of the body, foot movement in the direction of the fall, or falling. Complications.
[1] . Often the Romberg test can be confused as a sign of cerebellar disease, but instead, this test demonstrates the effects of posterior column disease.
Instead of standing with feet shoulder-width apart, the sharpened Romberg test dictates that the feet of the patient align in a strict tandem heel-to-toe position.
The second stage involves instructing the patient to stand erect with their eyes closed while the examiner notes any balance impairment for a duration of one minute. Swaying of the body may be observed. However, this indicates the proprioceptive correction of balance for the lack of visual or vestibular compensation available. The Rhomberg test is positive when the patient has a loss of balance with their eyes closed. Loss of balance can be defined as the increased swaying of the body, foot movement in the direction of the fall, or falling.
Although ataxia may develop gradually and insidiously, the screening test is indicated when the patient admits a deficit inability to move around in the dark or even maintain balance when washing his/her face. In disease states with severe proprioceptive impairment, the patient may even exhibit a noticeable degree of impairment when standing with the feet together.[1] When the patient may display clinical signs or evidence of inability to maintain postural station, or the power to stand steady with eyes open or shut , the diagnostic Romberg test and test of postural sway may be indicated.

The Romberg maneuver is a commonly performed test during the neurological exam. It is a valuable clinical sign to evaluate the integrity of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord and is particularly useful in patients with ataxia or severe incoordination. [5]
It is crucial to note that both the dorsal column and cerebellar damage may both result in ataxia .[3]
