Neurologic disorders of gait

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2001
Gait disorders are important because of their prevalence, particularly among the elderly, and the associated risk of falls and injury. Neural networks that organize locomotion and maintain balance are briefly reviewed. Gait disorders can be classified based on observational features or by etiology. Several common disorders are discussed in more detail.

Pathophysiology of gait disturbance in neurologic disorders and clinical presentations.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2013
Ambulation requires significant motor coordination. Because of inherent differences in body proportions, level of coordination, motivation, and other factors, each individual gait pattern is unique. However, despite the existence of these individual differences that contribute to each person's own unique walking style, there are highly repeatable gait ...

Shoulder-Tap Test for Functional Gait Disorders

Neurology, 2021
Functional gait disorders (FGDs) involve gait abnormalities that are internally inconsistent and incongruent with other neurologic disease.1 The clinical pull (or retropulsion) test is commonly used to evaluate postural instability in patients with ...

Evaluation of robot-assisted gait training using integrated biofeedback in neurologic disorders.

Gait & Posture, 2012
Neurological disorders lead to walking disabilities, which are often treated using robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) devices such as the driven gait-orthosis Lokomat. A novel integrated biofeedback system was developed to facilitate therapeutically desirable activities during walking.

Instrumented Version of the Modified Dynamic Gait Index in Patients With Neurologic Disorders

PM & R : the journal of injury, function, and rehabilitation, 2019
Gait instability is common in adults with neurologic disorders and the modified Dynamic Gait Index (mDGI) was recently introduced to assess dynamic balance. However, instrumental assessment is needed to provide quantitative measures.

Falls and gait disorders in geriatric neurology

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2010
Gait disturbances are frequent in older patients and lead to immobility, falls, and increased mortality. In gerontoneurologic patients a higher prevalence of risk factors for gait disturbances and falls has to be attributed due to neurodegenerative diseases, dementia, delirium, or psychotropic medication.
