Sujay Galen,Sujay Galen,Celia Clarke,Celia Clarke,Debbie Allan,Bernard A. Conway,Bernard A. Conway +6 more
TL;DR: This study for the first time has used the gait assessment tool in an ISCI population and has demonstrated that gait parameters can be measured and changes can be quantified within a clinical environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Augmented multisensory feedback enhances locomotor adaptation in humans with incomplete spinal cord injury.
TL;DR: The results implied that multisensory feedback may be used as an adjunctive approach to enhance gait recovery in humans with SCI.

Effects of robot assisted gait training in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP): a preliminary report
Patrizio Sale,Fabrizio Stocchi,Daniele Galafate,Maria Francesca De Pandis,Domenica Le Pera,Ivan Sova,Manuela Galli,Calogero Foti,Marco Franceschini +8 more
TL;DR: The lack of side effects and the positive results in the gait parameter index in all patients support the recommendation to extend the trials of robot training, a feasible and safe form of rehabilitation for cognitively intact people with PSP.

The Timed “Up & Go”: A Test of Basic Functional Mobility for Frail Elderly Persons
TL;DR: This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the “Get‐Up and Go” Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital and suggested that the timed “Up & Go’ test is a reliable and valid test for quantifying functional mobility that may also be useful in following clinical change over time.
Book
Gait Analysis: Normal and Pathological Function
TL;DR: This text encompasses the work of Dr Jacquelin Perry in her years as a therapist and surgeon focusing on the human gait, suitable for incorporating into many athletic training programmes, university physical therapy programmes and gait workshops.
