No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The pelvic girdle is the mechanical structure at the center of the balance and walking systems. The lack of amplitude of the joints that compose it could induce a fear of falling, common in the geriatric population and often underdiagnosed with poorly identified risk factors. This study seeks to highlight an association between fear of falling and lack of amplitude of the different joints of the pelvic girdle in order to identify predisposed patients and to set up preventive measures and better medical care.
