Impact of knee marker misplacement on gait kinematics of children with cerebral palsy using the Conventional Gait Model-A sensitivity study.
Mickaël Cardoso Fonseca,Mickaël Cardoso Fonseca,Xavier Gasparutto,Fabien Leboeuf,Raphaël Dumas,Stéphane Armand +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that the lower-limb kinematics is highly sensitive to the lateral femoral epicondyle marker misplacement in the anterior-posterior direction and plays a crucial role on the reliability of gait measurements with the Conventional Gait Model.

Does the rectus femoris nerve block improve knee recurvatum in adult stroke patients? A kinematic and electromyographic study
Raphaël Gross,Ludovic Delporte,L. Arsenault,Patrice Revol,M. Lefevre,D. Clevenot,Dominique Boisson,P. Mertens,Yves Rossetti,Jacques Luauté +9 more
TL;DR: Arguments against the hypothesis that the spasticity of the rectus femoris contributes to knee recurvatum (KR) are provided, as well as results from six adult, post-stroke hemiplegic patients who underwent a rectus Femoris nerve block for a stiff-knee gait.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entropy in the Analysis of Gait Complexity: A State of the Art
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the approximate entropy (ApEn), the sample entropy (SampEn), and the multi-scale entropy (MSE) to study human gait complexity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characterization of spatio-temporal parameters of human gait assisted by a robotic walker
TL;DR: Walker-assisted gait was marked by an overall reduction of spatio-temporal parameters, especially gait speed, without modification in cadence-speed and stride length-speed relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating mechanical cost in subjects with myelomeningocele
TL;DR: An attempt was made to validate a system of calculating mechanical cost using 3-D motion analysis by using Oxygen cost measurements in 26 subjects with myelomeningocele, and a lack of correlation for the more sophisticated models 2 and 3 questions their use as a method of assessing the energy cost of locomotion in this population.

Measurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking
TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.

Principles of dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the Lagrange Equations are used to model the dynamics of a rigid body and a system of parts of a particle system with respect to the velocity of a single particle.

Justification of triaxial goniometer for the measurement of joint rotation.
TL;DR: Considering all factors in joint functional evaluation, the modified triaxial goniometer is a useful and effective method to provide simple real time three-dimensional angular motion measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anthropometry of the manual work space for the seated subject
TL;DR: This paper is an exploration of the space-geometry of hand motions as they relate to young men in the seated posture primarily in functional anthropometry, but the information derived should have practical use in improving the design of work areas.

Walking patterns of men with parkinsonism.
TL;DR: Interrupted-light photography was used to record the simultaneous displacement patterns of multiple body segments of 44 patients with parkinsonism during free-speed and fast walking to quantitatively characterize their gait peculiarities.
