Far beyond the office: a multifaceted analysis of gait in neurological patients
Introduction: The gait can be defined as a cyclic pattern, in the biped posture, which uses the lower limbs for propulsion of the body. In the field of Neurology, walking in the physical examination represents signs in the neurological evaluation, which assist in closing diagnoses. In the clinical environment, especially in the offices, the refinement of the gait evaluation is restricted to the experience of the clinician, because the space is often reduced, the time inadequate for evaluation. Few reports in the literature address this issue.
