Interventions for idiopathic toe walking. [PDF]

Cochrane Database Syst Rev, 2019
Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) is an exclusionary diagnosis given to healthy children who persist in walking on their toes after they should typically have achieved a heel-toe gait. The literature discusses conservative and surgical interventions using a variety of treatment modalities.

Classifying Toe Walking Gait Patterns Among Children Diagnosed With Idiopathic Toe Walking Using Wearable Sensors and Machine Learning Algorithms

IEEE Access, 2022
Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) is a gait abnormality in which children’s toes touch at initial contact and demonstrate limited or no heel contact throughout the gait cycle.

Association between Toe Pressure Strength in the Standing Position and Maximum Walking Speed in Older Adults [PDF]

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research, 2023
Background Considering concerns about conventional toe grip strength, we devised a method to measure toe pressure strength in the standing position, which is close to the actual motion. This study examined the association between toe pressure strength in

Idiopathic toe walking and sensory processing dysfunction

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2010
Background It is generally understood that toe walking involves the absence or limitation of heel strike in the contact phase of the gait cycle. Toe walking has been identified as a symptom of disease processes, trauma and/or neurogenic influences.

The “Toe Walking Tool”: a novel method of assessing toe walking children [PDF]

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2011
Background Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) can present in children above the age of three, and occurs in the absence of any medically diagnosed conditions. Identification of medical conditions that are associated with toe walking can be complex and a potentially daunting task for those that infrequently assess children.

Dense & Attention Convolutional Neural Networks for Toe Walking Recognition [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023
Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) is a gait disorder where children’s initial contacts show limited or no heel touch during the gait cycle. Toe walking can lead to poor balance, increased risk of falling or tripping, leg pain, and stunted growth in ...

Managing Toe Walking, a Treatment Side Effect, in a Child With T-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: A Case Report [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
Background and Purpose: Children who have survived cancer are at risk of experiencing adverse effects of the cancer or its treatments. One of the adverse effects may be the limitation of ankle dorsiflexion (DF), which may result in “toe walking ...

Foot Contact Dynamics and Fall Risk among Children Diagnosed with Idiopathic Toe Walking

Applied Sciences, 2021
Children that are diagnosed with Idiopathic Toe walking (cITW) are characterized by persistent toe-to-toe contacts. The objective of this study was to explore whether typical foot contact dynamics during walking predisposes cITW to a higher risk of ...
