  • Standardization of kinematic gait measurements and automatic pathological gait pattern diagnostics
    Stanič, Uroš Janez ...
    The estimation of patients gait in the field of rehabilitation is the starting point for an appropriate therapy decision and convenient prosthesis or orthosis choice. The measurement and estimation ... of human locomotion is increasingly being transferred to every day clinical use. In recent times many systems are intended for kinematic gait parameters measurements: stroboscopic photography, movie camera, TV picture analysis, TV signal analysis, chronocyclographical measurement, polarised light goniometer, the "Selspot" system, parallelogram goniometers, exoskeleton goniometers. In the paper the role of the computer in gait measurements is also determined. The problems of the choice of parameters to be measured, unique reference coordinate systems and normal gait pattern are encountered in this work. Finally two versions of pathological gait pattern estimation are described: clinical gait analysis and mathematical quantitative gait analysis. A combination of both methods provides an efficient, compact automatic pathological gait pattern diagnostics.
