These data suggest that wide-based gait alone cannot differentiate between subjects with and without balance impairments. Base of support and other whole-body kinematic variables are mechanical compensations of vestibulopathic instability. Further studies are needed to determine whether development of active...
No quantitative gait analyses, however, have related base of support to steadiness during gait. To determine whether patients with cerebellar or vestibular disorders had a wider base of support than matched healthy individuals, we analyzed 102 balance-impaired patients and healthy subjects during free ...
