Abstract

The study of gait variability offers a complementary way of quantifying locomotion and its changes with aging (Hausdorff, 2005) and may contribute to improving the quality of life of women after menopause. The aim of this study was to describe gait variability at usual walking speed in postmenopausal women and to evaluate the influence of this variability in the quality of life.
