This thesis had a double objective: on the one hand metrological, regarding the evaluation of the reliability of the spatiotemporal, kinematic and muscle activation parameters, obtained by the 3D gait analysis and by dynamic surface electromyography (sEMG) during the gait development in toddlers; and, on the other hand physiopathological, regarding the possible differences in the development of the independent walking in toddlers with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) compared to typically developing toddlers (TD). The metrological study showed that 64% of the intersession and intertrial standard error of measurement values of the kinematics in both groups were acceptable (<5 °). EMG envelopes of the distal muscles of the affected side of tod...
