Comprehensive assessment of postural control in stabilometric study

The paper presents data on the features of the manifestation of the syndrome of falls in patients 65-74 years. Since it is known that from 50 to 70 % of all falls in the elderly and senile age occur during walking, we conducted a comparative analysis of the parameters of walking in patients with and without falling syndrome. Estimation of parameters of the walk was carried out with the help of computerized stabilometric complex "Smart Equitest Balance Manager". The decrease in adaptive abilities to complex motor acts in elderly women with fall syndrome was revealed. In addition, a significant change in the indicators "reversal time" and "fluctu- ation in the reversal" of the test "Rapid reversal" in women 65-74 years of fall syndrome, which indicates a decrease in visual and vestibular information in balance control, deterioration of neurophysiological mecha- nisms and dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system
