Dual task interference on postural sway, postural transitions and gait in people with Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait
(2017-07-01)
Freezing of gait (FoG) is associated with less automatic gait and more impaired cognition, balance and postural transitions compared to people with PD who do not have FoG. However, it is unknown whether dual-task cost ...
The Role of Proprioception in the Sagittal Setting of Anticipatory Postural Adjustments During Gait Initiation
(2015-12-01)
Purpose. Previous studies have studied the role of proprioception on the setting of anticipatory postural adjustments (APA) during gait initiation. However, these studies did not investigate the role of proprioception in ...
Gait Event Detection on Stair Walking Using a Rate Gyroscope
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2014-03)
Gyroscopes have been proposed as sensors for ambulatory gait analysis and functional electrical stimulation systems. These applications often require detection of the initial contact (IC) of the foot with the floor and/or ...
Gait initiation and partial body weight unloading for functional improvement in post-stroke individuals
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-02-01)
Background: To better understand gait initiation in individuals with stroke and suggest possible training strategies, we compared the gait initiation of individuals with stroke and age-matched controls, and we examined the ...
Continuous use of textured insole improve plantar sensation and stride length of people with Parkinson's disease: A pilot study
(2017-10-01)
Findings involving the acute benefits of textured insoles on gait in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) are still controversial. To our best acknowledge, the continuous use of textured insoles on gait in people with PD ...
Lower limb strength is associated with gait biomechanical abnormalities in older female fallers and non-fallers
(2013-06-17)
BACKGROUND: Age-related loss in lower limb strength is related with impaired mobility. However, the association between decreased lower limb strength and gait biomechanical abnormalities is unclear. %In line with this, ...

Gait events detection using inertial sensors, Apple Watch, and the G-WALK reference system
The main challenge in developing gait analysis systems is to ensure accuracy in the detection of gait eve nts. To achieve this, the development of algorithms that detect these events is critical. Besides, knowledge of the ...
Estudo comparativo da inicialização e finalização da marcha: do bebê ao adulto
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosBRUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Fisioterapia - PPGFt, 2010-02-14)
The gait initiation is set to transition from standing posture to the first step to reversing cyclical, and involves a motor program mediated by adjustments preparations necessary to propel the body forward (MELOUIN ET AL, ...
