Doutoramento em Motricidade Humana na especialidade de BiomecânicaThis thesis aimed to provide a better understanding on the determinant factors for falling in Portuguese older adults, with a special emphasis on the biomechanical changes in gait patterns associated with the functional fitness decline in this population. Our methodological approach to this problem encompassed two different levels of analysis: in the first part two epidemiological studies were conducted in order to establish the determinant factors for falling within the Portuguese older adults; in the second part three laboratory-based studies were performed in order to determine the influence of functional fitness levels on elderly gait patterns. Falls were shown to ...
