Restoration of the locomotor function is one of the most essential problems of medicine. This problem becomes especially essential, when we deal with those children, who can’t walk from their birth. Term “abilitation” is used just in relation to such children, what means not retraining children the right stereotype of walking, but appearance of this skill and its further adequate development. Nowadays, more and more specialists, who occupy themselves with abilitation of children of the early age, realize necessity of the instrumental estimation of the locomotor function. This phenomenon is connected with the fact, that in contrast with the score system of estimation, instrumental estimation of walking is maximally concrete and exact, and complex investigation of the biomechanical and innervative structure of walking gives complete idea of the locomotor disturbances of the child. Authors of this article investigated biomechanical and innervative structure of walking of 4 healthy children at the age of 2-2.5 years. On the basis of these investigations, it has been revealed, that the following peculiarities of walking are characteristic of children at the age of 2: remarkable diminution of the mean walking velocity, increase of cadence and shortening of the step length, essential transformation of the temporal structure of walking (growth of duration of the stance and double-support phase and decrease of duration of the swing phase), flexion position of the lower extremities, displacement of all extreme values of the angular displacements to the right along the temporal axis, considerable prolongation of the maximums of activity, absence of the second maximum of activity in a number of muscles, severe disturbances in the resonance properties of the lower extremities. All these peculiarities point out to the immaturity of the process of locomotion in children at the age of 2. The received data are necessary first of all as the standard ones, because walking parameters of children with the locomotor disorders of the early age must be compared with the corresponding parameters of the healthy children of the same age.
