Resumo
The study of gait provides information about gait, assists in diagnosis, monitoring and,
when necessary, in the establishment of an appropriate treatment, whether physical
therapy and/or surgery. However, the study of children's gait has particularities and
specific characteristics. The present study describes the initialization pattern of children's
gait that are found from the independent gait acquisition phase to the mature gait phase
and to analyze the biomechanical variables that can intervene in the child's motor
development and functional mobility. For this, the study is structured in chapters: 1) of
bibliographic origin, in which the main concepts and information on the subject are
gathered; 2) literature review, in paper I, presenting the measurement methods in
biomechanics and their respective techniques used for evaluation, since different
evaluation methods can generate different results in the understanding of the mechanisms
of gait initiation in children; 3) in paper II, dynamometry was used as a method of
investigation, through the pressure platform, the analysis of the behavior of the center of
pressure, during the initialization phase of the gait of typical children who are in the phase
of acquisition of the independent walking aged between 1.7 and 3 years; 4) for paper III,
the behavior of the center of pressure was compared in order to analyze two periods of
childhood in order to obtain information on how the body reacts to postural instabilities
from the start of gait in the maturation phase of walking. independently, in children aged
6 and 9 years. From the results obtained from the data, information was gathered on
balance strategies and children's behavior from the beginning of independent walking,
reducing asymmetries, to the maturational stage of gait, that is, of mature walking without
conscious effort
