Gait Disorders and Falls in the Elderly.

Michael Ronthal1.   

Abstract

Gait disorders in the elderly may be based on a neurologic deficit at multiples levels, or may be secondary to nonneurologic causes. The physiology and pathophysiology of gait problems are reviewed and bedside examination and investigative tools are discussed. The reader will have an excellent working knowledge of the subject and will know how to diagnose and treat gait disorders and falls.
