Gait analysis is necessary to diagnose movement disorders. In order reduce the costs of three-dimensional motion capture systems, new low-cost methods have been developed. The purpose this study was evaluate inter- and intra-rater reliability Kinovea® agreement with a system for detecting joint angles hip, knee ankle during initial contact phase walking. Fifty healthy subjects participated in study. All participants were examined twice one-week interval between two appointments. data...

Abstract Background Non-immersive video games are currently being used as technological rehabilitation tools for individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The aim of this feasibility study was to evaluate the effectiveness Leap Motion Controller® (LMC) system serious designed upper limb (UL), well levels satisfaction and compliance among patients in mild-to-moderate stages disease. Methods A non-probabilistic sampling non-consecutive cases performed. 23 PD patients, II-IV Hoehn & Yahr...

Background: The association between motor-related cortical activity and peripheral stimulation with temporal precision has been proposed as a possible intervention to facilitate cortico-muscular pathways thereby improve motor rehabilitation after stroke. Previous studies patients have provided evidence of the possibility implement brain-machine interface platforms able decode intentions use this information trigger afferent movement assistance. This study tests low-latency intention detector...

This study evaluates the effects of a rehabilitation program based on reflex locomotion therapy (RLT) balance, gait, and fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Twenty-three diagnosed MS participated this study. Reversal design was carried out. The assessment tools included Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA), Fatigue Severity (FSS) instrumental analysis gait recorded by Vicon Motion System®. We analyzed spatio-temporal parameters kinematic...

ASD patients include a variety of motor deficits; however, these issues have received less scientific attention than other symptoms. Due to understanding and behavioral difficulties, it might be difficult administer assessment measures children adolescents with ASD. To evaluate challenges in this population, including gait dynamic balance issues, the timed up go test (TUG) may simple, easy apply, quick, inexpensive tool. This seconds time takes for an individual get from standard chair walk...

Although advances in obstetric and neonatal care have improved the survival of preterm infants, many studies document increased risk motor sensory neurodevelopmental abnormalities that can hinder school progress. The aim this study was to analyze differences gross fine development children born full term aged 3 6 years using Peabody Developmental Motor Scales 2 (PDMS-II). Fifteen fifteen children, matched for age sex, participated study. They were evaluated with PDMS-II scale. scores...

Introduction. Reaching movements in stroke patients are characterized by decreased amplitudes at the shoulder and elbow joints greater displacements of trunk, compared to healthy subjects. The importance an appropriate specific contraction interscapular upper limb (UL) muscles is crucial achieving proper reaching movements. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) used activate paretic using short-duration pulses. Objective. To evaluate whether application FES UL with motor impairments...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. Gait abnormalities, such as altered joint kinematics, are common in people with MS (pwMS). Traditional clinical gait assessments may not detect subtle kinematic alterations, but advances motion capture technology and analysis methods, statistical parametric mapping (SPM), offer more detailed assessments. The aim of this study was to compare lower-limb kinematics during between pwMS healthy...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the test–retest reliability a conventional gait model (CGM), Plug-in Gait model, calculate angles hip, knee, and ankle during initial contact (IC) toe-off (TO). analysis performed using Vicon Motion System® (Oxford Metrics, Oxford, UK). group consisted 50 healthy subjects. To reliability, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), standard error measurement (SEM), minimal detectable change (MDC), Bland–Altman with 95% limits agreement were calculated. ICC...

Abstract Background Subjects with lower limb amputation develop new motor control strategies to preserve balance when they experience unexpected perturbations. Most studies performed thus far have not aimed discuss the possible differences in postural between subjects vascular unilateral transtibial (UTA) and traumatic UTA. Objective To analyze automatic reaction response surface perturbations a sample of UTA compare these observations those for group healthy subjects. Setting University...

Abstract Gait analysis offers vital insights into human movement, aiding in the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of various conditions. Analyzing gait corridors, rather than lab, provides unique advantages for a more comprehensive understanding locomotion. However, limited dedicated technologies constrain data this context. In study, markerless system using an Azure Kinect sensor mounted on mobile robot is proposed validated as potential solution corridors. Ten healthy participants...
