Multi-directional reach test (MRT) emerged as a valid and reliable assessment tool for balance evaluation among elderly. The normative reference scores have been established in adults and elderly people, but they were not yet established for children. Hence, we aimed at establishing the normative reference scores of MRT among the school going children aged between 5 and 12 years. The normative reference scores [median (95% confidence Interval, CI)] of MRT among the children aged 5-12 years old were FR [169.7 mm (CI, 166.1-183.3 mm)], BR [77.7 mm (CI, 78.0-85.5 mm)], RLR [122.0 mm (119.6-130.9 mm)] and LLR [107.0 (105.8-119.3 mm)] respectively.
