Abstract

Maintenance the standing postural control and in a simple motor act requires that sensory inputs be organized with the motor system of perfect way. Those aspects were evaluated in an ataxic patient through a static posturographic platform. Two models were measured one in standing position and during throw away a ball. A significant difference was found during the simple motor act where the subject uses all sensorial systems but the higher statistical reliability was found in vestibular and propioceptive systems ensuring the maintenance of postural control and avoiding a fall. Below we present a case report exploratory and descriptive.
