GAIT ANALYSIS & RESEARCH

The main purpose of gait analysis lab is to measure and study human gait walking patterns in order to better understand and treat gait abnormalities. . Gait analysis is useful for research on normal and abnormal walking patterns, gaining a better understanding of a subject’s gait, and planning treatment strategy. Gait analysis involves the measurement of kinetics/kinematics of joint movement, muscular activity, stride characteristics.

Kinetic data are measured with the help of force platform that provides information about ground reaction forces and when combined with kinematic data, can yield joint forces and moments. Joint angle and limb segment motion data or kinematic data are obtained by motion analysis systems   i.e. electro goniometers / photographic systems.
