“…The obtained average inter-trial variability is acceptable in clinical application according to previous papers by Schwartz et al (2004) and McGinley et al (2009). A relatively low intertrial variability indicates proper mounting of marker clusters, which eliminares sliding during examination.…”

“…Angle curves were plotted for a single representative subject (mean of three cycles) and for ten subjects (averaged across mean curves of each subject). Inter-trial variability was calculated according to the recommended method (Schwartz et al, 2004;McGinley et al, 2009) and plotted. Average inter-trial variability (AIT) was compared to the corresponding values from recent papers (Manca et al, 2010;Schwartz et al, 2004).…”

International Society of Biomechanics has proposed a general reporting standard for joint kinematics based on anatomical reference frames. Nevertheless, the gait analysis protocols based on this standard are still poorly reported. The purpose of the current study is to propose and preliminarily assess the potential of an anatomically based ISB 6-DOF protocol, which combines the ISB reporting standard together with a marker cluster technique. The proposed technical marker set enables full description of the lower limb kinematics (including three-dimensional ankle-foot complex rotations) according to the current biomechanical recommendation. The marker set provides a clinically acceptable inter-trial repeatability and minimal equipment requirements.

“…However, no study to our knowledge has quantified the relationship between hip muscle activity and pelvic STA. Despite the significance, these differences were small (hip difference at 25% = 0.73°; pelvic difference at 20% = 1.11°) (McGinley et al, 2009), and likely clinically acceptable. The sensitivity of each marker protocol was similar in magnitude, for all cardinal planes and all participants.…”

Valid measurement of pelvic and hip angles during posterior load carriage gait task requires placement of pelvic markers which will not be occluded or physically displaced by the load. One solution is the use of pure lateral pelvic clusters to track the pelvis segment. However, the validity of this method has not been compared against pelvic marker systems recommended by the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB) during high impact tasks, such as running. The purpose of this study was to validate the lateral tracking pelvic clusters against the ISB pelvis during running. Six participants performed overground running at a self-selected running speed with shoes. Three dimensional motion capture and synchronised in-ground force plates were used to determine lower limb joint angles and gait events respectively. Two biomechanical models were used to derive pelvic segment and hip joint angles. The ISB pelvis used the anterior and posterior iliac spines as anatomical and tracking markers, whilst the other model used lateral pelvic clusters as tracking markers. The between participant averaged coefficient of multiple correlation suggested good to excellent agreement between the angle waveforms generated from the two marker protocols. In addition, both marker protocols had similar sensitivity in detecting three dimensional pelvic and hip joint angles during the stance phase. This study suggests that in the event posterior load carriage is involved in running gait, pelvic and hip kinematics can be measured by the use of lateral pelvic clusters.

“…The maximum difference between days for the iPod touch was 1.7 ± 6.8° for the pelvic tilt in the frontal plane, and 1.3 ± 4.3° for the pelvic tilt in the sagittal plane. In a previous study, McGinley et al 24) reported a meta-analysis of the reliability of threedimensional gait analysis. They found the difference in days was within 4° for both the tilt angles of the pelvis in the frontal and sagittal planes.…”

Validity and Reliability of the Kinematic Analysis of Trunk and Pelvis Movements Measured by Smartphones during Walking

Abstract.[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the kinematic analysis of trunk and pelvis movement during gait and standing as measured by two smartphones (in the present study, we used iPod touches because of their weight).[Methods] Thirty-eight healthy adults (mean age, 21.4 ± 1.2 years) were instructed to stand and walk on a treadmill at three different speeds. The tilt angle of the trunk and pelvis were measured using both an iPod touch and an optoelectronic motion capture system (Optotrak).[Results] The error between the iPod touch and Optotrak was small during standing and walking at low speed. However, as the walking speed was increased, the error between the iPod touch and Optotrak increased. There were no significant differences between the test and retest measurement values of each device, nor were there any significant differences between the days of the analyses.[Conclusions] The iPod touch has good accuracy, since the variations in the test and retest and for different days were small. This suggests that the iPod touch can be used instead of the Optotrak for the kinematic analysis of trunk and pelvis movement at low walking speeds.
