“…Currently, only two studies provide MDC values for computerized gait analysis data [1,13]. Both of these studies were conducted using patient populations and report MDC values as high as 128 for commonly used kinematic variables of the lower extremity [1,13].…”

“…Computerized assessment of gait is commonly used in both research and clinical settings to identify deviations, plan treatment and determine the effectiveness of interventions for a wide range of conditions such as cerebral palsy, lower extremity amputation and stroke [1][2][3]. The ability to effectively meet these objectives is dependent on the collection of data that allows identification of real and meaningful change in performance [4].…”

“…Em relação ao TC6, pesquisas mostram sua confiabilidade para avaliar a potência aeró-bia e detectar adaptações cardiorrespiratórias em indivíduos deambuladores com PC; foi estabelecida uma confiabilidade com o IGE, além de ser de fácil aplicação e compreensão pelos participantes (19,25,35,50) . Em nosso estudo, o GI apresentou aumento significante na distância percorrida no TC6 e diminuição do IGE, o que condiz com menor gasto energéti-co e sugere maior resistência muscular na marcha após o protocolo de condicionamento nesses indivíduos.…”

Paralisia cerebral. Exercício. Aquático. Condicionamento físico humano.Período pós-operatório. RESUMOObjetivo: Avaliar os efeitos de exercícios aquáticos no condicionamento físico e sua interferência na funcionalidade em indivíduos com paralisia cerebral no período pós-operatório.Métodos: Trata-se de um ensaio clínico randomizado, controlado, e cego, desenvolvido no centro de reabilitação da Associação de Assistência a Criança Deficiente (AACD). Os pacientes foram divididos em GC (grupo controle), que realizava terapias convencionais e GI (grupo intervenção) que, além das terapias, realizava um protocolo de condicionamento em meio liquído, que durou 12 semanas, 2x/semana. Ambos os grupos foram submetidos pré e pós intervenção ao TC6 (teste de caminhada de 6 minutos), TUG (time up and go), IGE (índice de gasto energético), EVA (escala visual analógica) da marcha, dimensões D e E do GMFM (medida da função motora grossa), VM (velocidade média) e CHQ PF-50 (Child Health Questionaire -Função física e dor). Resultados: Houve melhora no GI, na análise intragrupo, nos itens avaliados. Conclusão: foi possível verificar que o protocolo de condicionamento físico em ambiente aquático foi efetivo para melhorar a capacidade física em crianças e adolescentes com PC. Esses ganhos repercutiram de forma positiva na função motora grossa e na qualidade de vida. Postoperative period.

Background: Reconstruction surgery is one of the treatment methods after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury especially in athletes. Reconstructed ACL is associated with altered joint biomechanics, abnormal muscle strength, gait disorder and decreased athletic performance. Abnormal walking pattern has been shown to be one of the functional consequences of ACL reconstruction. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of kinematic and spatiotemporal gait parameters after ACL reconstruction using Zebris ultrasound movement analysis system. Methods: A sample of convenience including 20 healthy athletes and 20 athletes 4 to 6 months after ACL reconstruction participated. Subjects walked on a treadmill for one minute at preferred, high and low speeds and kinematic and spatio -temporal parameters including stride time, stride length, maximum knee flexion, maximum knee flexion velocity and maximum knee extension velocity are calculated. Results: In the patient group, relative reliability measures for almost all parameters were high at low (ICC: 0.7 -0.97), preferred and high speeds (ICC: 0.75 -0.97). This was also true for the control group, were reliability for all parameters was high at low, preferred (ICC: 0.74 -0.99) and high (ICC: 0.83 -0.99) speeds, except for stride time of the left leg which showed moderate reliability. Additionally, at high speed, all parameters revealed very high reliability. Conclusions: Zebris movement analysis system is a highly reliable instrument for the measurement of gait parameters at different speeds in healthy athletes and those after ACL reconstruction surgery. This implies its use in the assessment and treatment process of gait deficits in such a clinically important population.
