Construction of a Reference Corridor to Assess the Value of Combining Innovative Morphological and Functional Analysis Techniques in Pediatric Patient Care Based on Different Pathological Models

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Markerless gait analysis: Inclusion of healthy children without spinal and/or lower limb pathologies recruited from orthopedic consultations, siblings of patients, children of staff, and word of mouth. Markerless AQM performed on the same day. Data collected by a single person using an EpiData-type data entry form. Blurred videos processed and archived at Arts et Métiers for 15 years on a secure server.

Study summary

Reference motion analysis systems require a dedicated, specific laboratory environment, with self-reflective markers placed on anatomical points by trained personnel, limiting gait analysis to specific pathologies. Some markerless systems have emerged but still require numerous cameras and are expensive. The implementation of a markerless motion capture system based on only four cameras in routine clinical practice would broaden the indications for gait analysis to include any pathology of the lower limbs and/or spine in the pediatric population.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Analysis of kinematic parameters of the trunk, the hip, the knee, the ankle during gait. — 36 months
  RANGE OF MOTION in DEGREE for the flexion/extension - abduction/adduction - internal/external rotation of the trunk, hip, knee, ankle in degrees, obtained by Matlab.
