Various gait pattern generation and analysis of semi-passive quadruped walker with telescopic knee based on phase oscillatorQuadruped walkingPassive intralimb coordinationGait transitionPassive dynamic walkingPhase oscillatorIt is known that the gait changes in accordance with the travel velocity by exploiting...
However, the paradox may be to assume that stable persons adopt stable gait pattern as measured with the MoS when the opposite relationship may in fact be true, i.e. that stable persons can afford more unstable gait pattern while unstable persons need to adopt more stable gait pattern. For ...

The effects of walking with and without parallel bars, providing 40% body weight support (BWS) and increasing speed on the gait pattern of spastic paretic subjects during treadmill locomotion were investigated. In asymmetrically in volved subjects, walking without parallel bars led to a more ...
Chorea may produce a very irregular gait pattern often described as a stuttering or dancing gait. Again, the contact of the foot with the support surface is unpredictable because of theinvoluntary movements. Despite the gait appearing extremely precarious, many patients do not fall until the gait ...
This gait pattern may be safe on a smooth surface but is a risky strategy when walking on rugs because patients may trip. Asymmetry or variability of gait rhythm can be detected when clinicians whisper “dum...dum...dum” to themselves with each of the patient’s steps. Some cl...
Gait pattern improved with the ability to ambulate indoors without an assistive device and using only a straight cane for community ambulation. The use of CBT is well documented as a group intervention for older adults with fear of falling, but CBT techniques may also be helpful for younger ...
Osteotomies in the pelvis result in substantial improvement in walking tolerance, posture, and overall gait pattern. What Are the Long-Term Effects of Untreated Trendelenburg Gait? Chronic untreated Trendelenburg gait can lead to long-term complications in your knees and ankles. It also speeds up th...
the control walker. We found that Walker A’s dissimilar PCs (PC1) presented a larger upper body sway in the medial–lateral direction and such sway pattern did not covary with any control walker’s PCs. For the amputee walker B and C, the dissimilar PCs shows a small range of motion....
(e.g., step length, stride length, step width) is not fully equipped to investigate the coordination patterns underlying specific features of imperceptible gait pattern fluctuations. On the other hand, a comprehensive study of gait variability can incorporate as many as 16 gait parameters at the ...
