Overview

The force platform provides valuable objective data in examinations of different disorders, inparticular of the stability in an upright position. For the submitted study children and adolescentsaged 6 – 25 years with the diagnosis of infantile cerebral palsy and mild cerebral dysfunction wereselected. A total of six subjects were examined. The authors examined the deviations of subjects inan upright position, transmitted to the platform as central pressure changes. Central pressurechanges were transmitted by means of sensors by analogue digital means into a computer softwareprogramme. The results in several subjects revealed great differences, i.e. affection of the stability(impaired coordination, cerebellar disorders, peripheral vestibular disorders and cervical patterns,burdening of the right and left side with a difference up to 20 %, inability to stand on one leg) whichsometimes differed surprisingly from the assumed affection of structures of the CNS.
