This study based on observations of motor disturbances performed in 42 hemiparetic patients using selected options of the pedobarographic system – Parotec System for Windows (PSW).[3]. The PSW mentioned that several disease cases have distinct excursion into the gravity center movement. The patient’s weight is bearing distribution towards the affected leg, particularly in a heel region. The observed over-loaded region of a foot is well seen in impulse option interfaces. The affected leg can also be observable on a scale of a floor contact. The foot gravity center in case of physiology is located closer to metatarsal zone. Anyhow in case of the affected foot the gravity center moved from the heel into the fingers, in pendulum mode, with irregular speed. Time diagrams of pressure distribution allow observing a distinct elongation of an entrance and a support phase of step, with significant shortage of the push off stage. The mentioned above abnormalities correspond strictly with severity of hemiparesis
