Effect of age and activity level on lower extremity gait dynamics: An introductory study
Original language description
Elderly adults should perform exercises that maintain or improve balance in order to reduce risk of injury from falls. Bone fractures secondary to falls in the elderly, particularly sedentary females, continue to pose a major health and economic problem.The purpose of this study was to quantify the relationships between age/activity level and selected biodynamic parameters of the lower extremity during normal gait. Seventeen healthy women, nine young and eight elderly, were divided into groups of nineactive and eight sedentary subjects. Three dimensional (3-D) video motion and force platform kinematic and kinetic data were collected from the hip, knee, and ankle of the right lower extremity as the subjects walked at self-selected speeds. Data were analyzed as functions of age and activity level by using a two-way analysis of variance. As expected, our results show that the elderly group had significantly greater (p{0.05) functional and mobility limitations in their lower extremity jo
