“…Estudo de Marques et al 33 mostrou que os músculos antigravitacionais, como o quadríceps, são os que mais sofrem com o envelhecimento e a inatividade física. Considerando que idosos caidores apresentam mobilidade reduzida, esses idosos podem estar propensos à fraqueza muscular de quadríceps, com consequente impacto na marcha num esforço para manter a estabilização do tornozelo e quadril.…”

“…In geriatric rehabilitation, the increase in MV usually predicts progress in independence and mobility (31) , since it improves physical functions, reduces disability and uses medical services (32) . The MV evaluation is simple and may indicate a good state of aging, and greater ability in recovery in episodes that the elderly undergoes an overload, such as the fall (25,33,35) . The MV is used as a guide to map and categorize the elderly with high and low risk of falls, and it is able to identify the fear of falling present in this population (34) .…”

“…In geriatric rehabilitation, increased MS usually predicts advance in independence and mobility 30 , as it brings improvement of physical functions and reduces disabilities and use of medical services 31 . MS evaluation is simple, and it can indicate a good aging condition and greater ability to recover in situations in which older people suffer an overload, such as falling [32][33][34] . MS can be used as a guide to map and categorize older people who present high and low risk of falls.…”

“…Older people, especially the ones who fall, present mobility reduction and are more likely to have decreased muscle strength caused by aging process and inactivity, with consequent impact on gait, as well as ankle and hips stabilization 4 . Increased stimulus coming from the infrapatellar bandage can favor kinematics of the knee joint and produce beneficial results in the mobility and speed of this population 4,34 . There are still doubts regarding real benefits of sensory information addition in the improvement of postural balance in older people.…”
