Description

For sample adults who reported ever treating their balance or dizziness problem (BALTRET), BALTREXER indicates whether the person had ever tried exercises or physical therapy for the problem. The survey text included the instructions not to include Tai Chi, Yoga, or Qi Gong, which are included under BALTRETCHI.

The question for this variable was part of the Sample Adult Balance Supplement, sponsored by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.
