1. Gait analysis – introduction
Gait
− Walking represents the ordinary manner of locomotion
− The human gait is a periodic and reliable cycle and follows basic patterns
− Gait is suitable to evaluate the functionality of the musculoskeletal system
− The gait cycle produces many information over a short time, which an observing person can‘t fully memorize
− Thus, and the necessity of documentation led to the development of instrumented gait analysis

1. Gait analysis - basics
Situation in European Clinics
− Better - but more expensive treatments of patients are available (new technologies)
− The structure of the society is changing – more elderly persons
− So costs for treatment of patients are increasing dramatically
− Pressure of insurances for quality examination is increasing
− Patients want to get objective information for the results of the treatment – they pay for treatment
− Tools for objective measurements for effects of the treatment are necessary

1. Gait analysis - basics
Gait analysis is a very important issue in the rehabilitation of
patients with different indications concerning gait
Focus Neurological Rehabilitation− Only in Germany more then 250.000 new patients per year
with stroke – nearly 80% of these patients have disturbances in locomotion
Focus Orthopedic Clinics− Surgery of artificial knees and hips has very increased
Focus Geriatric Clinics
Focus Pediatric Clinics

1. Gait analysis - basics
3 Phases using objective measurement of locomotion
1. Help to make a decision for a certain kind of treatment (treatment intervention planning)
2. Documentation of results during and at the end of the treatment for insurances and patients
3. Helping to decide whether to continue or to finish a treatment (a pro when talking with the health insurances to extend the treatment)

1. Gait analysis - basics
How we can describe gait?
− Most popular scheme is published by J. Perry and colleagues of RLARC (California, USA)
Modified by Perry & Burnfield 2010

1. Gait analysis – problems in clinical use
− Visual gait observation underlies verifiable subjective influence. Every people has its own subjective gait.
− During early stages of rehabilitation patients have many abnormalities (e.g. no detection of gait phases is possible)
− Other parameters to quantify gait are necessary
− Gait cycle provides too much information in short time to observe and memorize everything without device
10

1. Gait analysis – observation vs. instrumented analysis
− Today in many rehabilitation centers subjective, visual gait observation by physician or therapist is most commonly used. Different scales for observing gait are available (e.g. Tinetti test, 6 Minute Walking Test).
but the results are …
… subjective
… not accurate
… hardly comparable
Therefore objective measurements of the gait are necessary.

1. Gait analysis – assistive systems
− Over the time different gait assessment systems with different measurement methods were developed:
− 3 D ultrasound systems (e.g. Zebris)
12

1. Gait analysis – assistive systems
Optical marker based infrared systems (e.g. Vicon) or video-based systems (e.g. SIMI Motion)
13
Gait analysis with RehaWatch • © Hasomed 2011
1. Gait analysis - basics
Such systems are
− Cost intensive (20.000 to >100.000€)
− special laboratory/ room necessary only for gait analysis
− Special education necessary for therapist – no automatic analysis – markers must positioned very exact
− Limited to a small observation area - no independent gait –the results do not show the actual movement
− Mostly connected to a treadmill – no independent gait possible
But : you can document the movement of the whole body
Mostly used in research institutes – not for clinical use
14

1. Gait analysis – assistive systems
Foot pressure systems (e.g. Medilogic)
Only a small component of gait is
documented – not movement but
effected pressure
Not used in rehabilitation.
Mostly used for optimization
of orthopedic shoes e.g. for
diabetic patients.

1. Gait analysis – clinical expectations
What do Clinics need?
Clinical expectations regarding instrumented gait analysis:
− Objective and reliable data
− Fast and easy to use
− Economic
− Possibility of documentation of the treatment
− Therapy supervision
− Verification of therapeutic success
− Use in authentic situations
It should secure and establish high quality in daily gait therapy

1. Gait analysis - history
− Gait observation was first described by Aristoteles (384 - 322 BC)
− First steps of scientific gait analysis were done by Boreli(1608 – 1679 AD) with the publication „de motu animalum“
− Modern scientific elaboration of gait mechanisms was formed by the brothers Weber in the 19th century
− Most important milestone was led by Braune & Fischer with the first 3 D movement analysis (early 20th century)

− Easy and time saving to use – 5 minutes
− Expansive equipment is not necessary (e.g. treadmill)
− Large data capacity recording (number of steps)
− If necessary, data can be recorded for up to 2 hours forlong time observation

− Online analysis
− Real time feedback for patients and suggestions for improvement
− Multiple training programs
− Adjustable for each subject
All these future developments are actually possible with RehaWatch

1. Gait analysis – observation vs. instrumented analysis
− Instrumented gait analysis is traditionally used for surgical applications, rehabilitation and treatment intervention planning, because…
… it provides detailed kinetic and kinematic parameters
… the results are objective
… the systems are reliable
but the application is …
… limited to laboratory use
… cost intensive
… time consuming
