Exposure to trips and slips with increasing unpredictability while walking can improve balance recovery responses with minimum predictive gait alterations.

INTRODUCTION:The primary study aim was to determine if repeated exposure to trips and slips with increasing unpredictability while walking can improve balance recovery responses when predictive gait alterations (e.g. slowing down) are minimised. The secondary aim was to determine if predictive gait...
