Is Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease a Result of Multiple Gait Impairments? Implications for Treatment

Parkinson's Disease, 2012
Several gait impairments have been associated with freezing of gait (FOG) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). These include deteriorations in rhythm control, gait symmetry, bilateral coordination of gait, dynamic postural control and step scaling.

Human gait recognition with matrix representation [PDF]

, 2006
Human gait is an important biometric feature. It can be perceived from a great distance and has recently attracted greater attention in video-surveillance-related applications, such as closed-circuit television.

Self-reported gait unsteadiness in mildly impaired neurological patients: an objective assessment through statistical gait analysis [PDF]

, 2012
Background Self-reported gait unsteadiness is often a problem in neurological patients without any clinical evidence of ataxia, because it leads to reduced activity and limitations in function.

Postural transitions detection and characterization in healthy and patient populations using a single waist sensor

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2020
Background Sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transitions are frequent daily functional tasks indicative of muscle power and balance performance. Monitoring these postural transitions with inertial sensors provides an objective tool to assess mobility in both

Gait disorders [PDF]

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2001
This chapter deals with the neuronal mechanisms underlying impaired gait. The aim is, first, a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and, second, the selection of an adequate treatment. One of the first symptoms of a lesion within the central motor system perceived by patients is a movement disorder, which is most characteristic during

Model-based Gait Recognition

, 2009
Model-based Gait Recognition concerns identification using an underlying mathematical construct(s) representing the discriminatory gait characteristics (be they static or dynamic), with a set of parameters and a set of logical and quantitative ...

Clinical Gait Evaluation with Neuromuscular Impairments (Clinical GENI) for spastic cerebral palsy

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
BackgroundGait abnormalities in spastic cerebral palsy (CP) result from four primary neuromuscular impairments: muscle weakness, short muscle-relative-to-skeletal-length, muscle spasticity, and impaired selective motor control.

Neuromuscular impairments of cerebral palsy: contributions to gait abnormalities and implications for treatment

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Identification of neuromuscular impairments in cerebral palsy (CP) is essential to providing effective treatment. However, clinical recognition of neuromuscular impairments in CP and their contribution to gait abnormalities is limited, resulting in ...
