Gait and Clinical Movement Analysis represent sophisticated methodologies employed in healthcare to assess and understand how individuals walk and move, providing valuable insights for diagnosis, treatment planning, and performance optimization. This specialized field integrates biomechanics, technology, and clinical expertise to analyze the complexities of human movement, with applications across orthopedics, rehabilitation, sports medicine, and neurology. In orthopedics and rehabilitation, gait analysis serves as a powerful diagnostic tool. Clinicians use this approach to evaluate the mechanics of walking, identifying abnormalities in joint movement, muscle activation, and weight distribution. Gait analysis is particularly beneficial for individuals recovering from surgeries, such as joint replacements or ligament repairs. By analyzing an individual's gait, clinicians can tailor rehabilitation programs to address specific deficits, promote optimal movement patterns, and enhance overall functional mobility. Technological advancements have significantly advanced the field of gait analysis. Instrumented treadmills equipped with force plates, motion capture systems, and wearable sensors enable precise data collection on joint angles, forces, and temporal-spatial parameters during walking or running. This objective data facilitates evidence-based decision-making, allowing clinicians to customize treatment plans, prescribe orthotics, and monitor progress more accurately.
