Description

Understanding Observational Gait Analysis

A Comprehensive Guide to Gait Assessment

Observational Gait Analysis: A Visual Guide is an invaluable resource for healthcare professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of normal and pathological gait. This pedagogical manual and video library offers a comprehensive review of critical gait characteristics, providing a solid foundation for observational clinical gait analysis.

Unique Features for Comprehensive Learning

The guide features an array of distinctive elements that support a deeper grasp of gait examination and evaluation.

Visual Depictions and Dynamic Presentations

Normal and pathological gait patterns are vividly illustrated with figures, graphs, and gait videos. 3D graphs enhance comprehension by visualizing the kinematics and kinetics involved in each movement.

Functional Assessment Tools

The guide introduces functional tools that serve as outcome measures for evaluating gait performance in real-world settings. These tools include the Dynamic Gait Test, Six Minute Walk Test, and Ten Meter Walk Test, providing valuable insights into functional gait abilities.

OGA Tool for Pathological Gait Analysis

The guide introduces a novel Observational Gait Analysis (OGA) tool that provides detailed descriptions of gait deviations. Probable causes for each deviation are thoroughly discussed, providing a practical framework for identifying and understanding gait abnormalities.

Case Studies for Hands-on Application

Case studies are presented throughout the guide, demonstrating the application of the OGA tool in examining and evaluating gait. Students can actively participate in completing the OGA tool and comparing their results to the text’s case study analyses.

Validation through 3D Analysis

Students can further validate their observational skills by contrasting their assessment of gait deviations with the results obtained through 3D instrumented analysis of the same individuals. Skeletal models, motion graphs, and moment graphs complement the visual demonstrations, solidifying comprehension.

In-Class and Clinical Applications

Instructors can access additional materials at www.efacultylounge.com for use in classroom settings. The guide serves as a go-to resource for clinical tools in gait analysis, empowering students and clinicians in physical therapy, prosthetics, and orthotics to effectively analyze and manage gait disabilities.

Observational Gait Analysis: A Visual Guide stands as an indispensable resource for healthcare professionals seeking to master the art of gait examination and analysis. Its unique features, comprehensive content, and practical applications make it an invaluable resource for students, clinicians, and researchers seeking to advance their understanding of gait disorders.
