The kinematics and strategies of recovery steps during lateral losses of balance in standing at different perturbation magnitudes in older adults with varying history of falls

BACKGROUND: Step-recovery responses are critical in preventing falls when balance is lost unexpectedly. We investigated the kinematics and strategies of balance recovery in older adults with a varying history of falls. METHODS: In a laboratory study, 51 non-fallers (NFs), 20 one-time fallers (OFs),...
