Segments and com kinematics, gait grf: what influent limits of stability tests result on stable and unstable surface in group of healthy, active women of age around 50?

Ankle and hip joins are identified as crucial segments for corrective movement in balance. The aim of this study was to assess the connection of COM, pelvis, hip, knee and ankle and gait ground reaction forces with results of BIODEX LOS tests on stable/unstable surface. Kinematics was captured with VICON, modified Full Body Marker Set PlugInGait. COM kinematics was referred to base of stability as distance. Results revealed the participation of all analyzed segments in stable conditions and in addition gait forces in unstable.
