Coutinho, António; Fragata, Carla; Maio, David; Vivas, Inês; Gonçalves, MarisaObjectives: The aim of this study was to assess the changes that occur in the balance, fear of falling and kinematic parameters such as stride length, velocity and time support in elderly with and without a history of falling. Main objective was also to verify whether a relationship exists between changes in gait parameters evaluated, balance and fear of falling. Methods: The sample comprised 30 patients (15 w...
