摘要
The knee joint stiffness is a very complex issue, which occurs in many children with cerebral palsy (CP). Therefore, in children with CP are carried out studies both clinical and biomechanical. They are carried out to evaluate the locomotors system and to choose the most appropriate treatment. Biomechanical evaluation of the musculoskeletal system focused on the analysis of gait. The aim of the research presented in this paper was to evaluate of the knee joint stiffness in children with CP based on the designated during gait studies of kinematic magnitudes.
