Overview
Aging of the human being inevitably leads to the changes in movements. The aim of this study is to quantify and compare the differences in the dynamics of foot movement compared with static in adulthood and old age, focusing on the midstance period. A secondary objective is to outline the relationship with the angular distribution of pressure on the sole. For measurements two measuring methods were used. The kinematic analysis named Qualysis was used as a main method and system of plantar pressure insoles Pedar X as a complementary method. Differences were prooved by using the statistical calculation, which confirmed the hypothesis of half clear a significant degree.
Key words:
foot, gait, kinematic analysis, plantar pressure, aging
