Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: Balance improvement verified by examining stabilometry held on the force platform, with the analysis of these data is expected to centralization of COP (center of pressure). Expected outcome: Improved recruitment of the tibialis anterior muscle verified by examining surface electromyography, with the analysis of these data is expected to increase in the RMS (Root Mean Square). Expected outcome: Improved march in the item speed, measured in seconds and distance covered, measured in meters, checked through the 10-meter and 6-minute walk test, with the analysis of these data is expected to decrease in run time the test 10 meters and increasing the distance covered in a 6-minute walk test. | — |
