The Romberg test is a test of the body's sense of positioning (proprioception), which requires healthy functioning of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord. The Romberg test is used to investigate the cause of loss of motor coordination (ataxia).

The test is performed as follows:
The patient is asked to remove his shoes and stand with his two feet together.
The clinician asks the patient to first stand quietly with eyes open, and subsequently with eyes closed.
The Romberg test is scored by counting the seconds the patient is able to stand with eyes closed.

"Negative Romberg test" refers to a stable, well-balancing patient with her eyes either open or closed. Romberg test is considered positive if the patient stands on a narrow base with eyes open, but falls on closing the eyes.
