There is a lower amplitude of pelvic movements that affects gait efficiency. Equilibrium is also disturbed since the trunk assumes the leadership of gait, displacing the pelvis.

Therefore, after the age of 65, all falls must be considered symptomatic (Rev Méd Chile 2002; 130: 332-7)info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Médica de SantiagoRevista médica de Chile v.130 n.3 20022002-03-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0034-98872002000300014es10.4067/S0034-98872002000300014
