A comparative randomized-controlled trial of serial casting and exercises on ankle range of motion, toe walking severity, walking balance, and functional health-related quality of life in children with idiopathic toe walking.

Journal of pediatric orthopedics. Part B
Randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) investigating nonoperative interventions for idiopathic toe walking (ITW) are limited. High-quality, parallel-group RCTs comparing treatment with no treatment are needed.

Is Idiopathic Toe Walking Really Idiopathic? The Motor Skills and Sensory Processing Abilities Associated With Idiopathic Toe Walking Gait

Journal of Child Neurology, 2013
This study aimed to investigate any differences between the motor skills and sensory processing abilities of children between the ages of 4 and 8, who do and do not have an idiopathic toe walking gait. Children in each cohort were tested with a number of norm referenced assessments. A total of 60 children participated, 30 within each cohort. Those with

Idiopathic Toe Walking: A Comparison of Treatment Methods

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1998
Eighty children with idiopathic toe walking (ITW) were examined 2-8 years (average, 34 months) after initial presentation to compare outcomes [passive ankle dorsiflexion (DF) and parental satisfaction] after three treatment modalities: observation, cast/brace treatment, or surgical triceps surae lengthening. Overall, 32% had a family history of ITW, 28%

Idiopathic Toe-Walking in Children and Adolescents

JBJS Reviews, 2022
» Idiopathic toe-walking is a diagnosis of exclusion.» The natural history of idiopathic toe-walking has not been studied in many children; we identified only 1 prospective study. Of children without equinus contractures who were toe-walking before the age of 5.5 years, 59% had spontaneous resolution of toe-walking by 5.5 ...

Differentiation of Idiopathic Toe-Walking and Cerebral Palsy

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1988
Kinematic data were collected on two groups of children with diagnoses of idiopathic toe-walking and mild spastic diplegia. Although both groups lacked a heel strike at initial contact, two distinct gait patterns were found. The toe-walkers displayed a variable pattern of ankle motion with moderate to severe plantarflexion at stance. The cerebral palsy

Reliability and Validity of the 50-ft Walk Test for Idiopathic Toe Walking

Pediatric Physical Therapy, 2017
Purpose: To evaluate interrater reliability and concurrent validity of the 50-ft walk test (FWT) for children with idiopathic toe walking (ITW). Methods: Thirty children, 6 to 13 years old, with ITW participated. During the 50-FWT, an accelerometer counted total steps.
