Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The prevalence of walking disorders in the elderly is high. These can lead to falls which represent a major public health issue in terms of hospitalization, morbidity and cost. Numerous studies analyzing the link between spatio-temporal parameters of gait and fall have already been carried out, but most have been carried out in a population of elderly patients living at home and having no or few comorbidities. Very few studies have been carried out in a population of frail elderly people, with multiple comorbidities or multiple medication, which is the case with most patients hospitalized in acute geriatrics.

The objective of the study is to evaluate the spatio-temporal parameters of walking using the GAITRite® mat in patients hospitalized in acute geriatrics and to compare them between a population of falling patients and a population of patients. no faller.
