Associations between the spatial temporal gait parameters and risk of falls among elderly people in a certain community: a cross-section study
A better understanding of the spatial temporal gait parameters among elders linked to the risk of falling will allow the elaboration of specific interventions for this specific population. Through this cross-sectional study, it was observed that the time of the stance phase, time of the swing phase,...

| Sumario: | A better understanding of the spatial temporal gait parameters among elders linked to the risk of falling will allow the elaboration of specific interventions for this specific population. Through this cross-sectional study, it was observed that the time of the stance phase, time of the swing phase, and the use of an auxiliary walking device were parameters associated with the risk of falling in the elderly in this specific community. |
