Role of the Functional Gait Assessment in Validating Item Difficulty Hierarchy and Fall Risk for Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Falls along with gait‐balance disturbances are important symptoms of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). Objectives This study aimed to validate the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) item‐difficulty hierarchy, determine its optimal fall cutoff value, and identify key items for assessing fall risk in iNPH.
