Journal ArticleDOI
Repeatability of kinematic, kinetic, and electromyographic data in normal adult gait.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that with the subjects walking at their natural or preferred spped, the gait variables are quite repeatable, and suggest that it may be reasonable to base significant clinical decisions on the results of a single gait evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of clinical gait analysis: A systematic review
TL;DR: The existing evidence indicates efficacy at the higher levels of patient outcomes and societal cost-effectiveness, but this evidence is more sparse and does not include any randomized controlled trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outcome tools used for ambulatory children with cerebral palsy: responsiveness and minimum clinically important differences.

TL;DR: This prospective longitudinal multicenter study of ambulatory children with cerebral palsy examined changes in outcome tool score over time, tool responsiveness, and used a systematic method for defining minimum clinically important differences (MCIDs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the kinematic variability among 12 motion analysis laboratories.
TL;DR: In this study, one subject was evaluated by 24 examiners at 12 motion analysis laboratories and the observed variability of nine kinematic parameters are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gross Motor Function Classification System and outcome tools for assessing ambulatory cerebral palsy: a multicenter study.

TL;DR: Logistic regression showed GMFM section E score to be a significant predictor of GMFCS level, and study data indicate that the assessed outcome tools can distinguish between children with differentGMFCS levels.
