Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with cerebral palsy (CP) who walk have complex gait patterns and deviations often requiring physical therapy (PT)/medical/surgical interventions. Walking in children with CP can be assessed with 3-dimensional instrumented gait analysis (3D-IGA) providing kinematics (joint angles), kinetics (joint moments/powers), and muscle activity. PURPOSE This clinical practice guideline provides PTs, physicians, and associated clinicians involved in the care of children with CP, with 7 action statements on when and how 3D-IGA can inform clinical assessments and potential interventions. It links the action statement grades with specific levels of evidence based on a critical appraisal of the literature. CONCLUSIONS This clinical practice guideline addresses 3D-IGA's utility to inform surgical and non-surgical interventions, to identify gait deviations among segments/joints and planes and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. Best practice statements provide guidance for clinicians about the preferred characteristics of 3D-IGA laboratories including instrumentation, staffing, and reporting practices.Video Abstract: Supplemental digital content available at http://links.lww.com/PPT/A524.

Toe-walking and its impact on first and second rocker in gait patterns with different degrees of artificially emulated soleus and gastrocnemius contracture. Gait Posture 2023; 105:104-109. [PMID: 37523808 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2023.07.285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2022] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Toe-walking is one of the most common gait deviations (due to soleus and/or gastrocnemius muscle contractures), compromising the first (heel rocker) and second (ankle rocker) of the foot during walking. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of emulated artificially gastrocnemius and soleus contractures on the first and second rocker during walking. METHOD An exoskeleton was built to emulate contractures of the bilateral gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Ten healthy participants were recruited to walk under the following conditions: without emulated contractures or with bilateral emulated contractures at 0°,10°, 20° and 30° of plantarflexion of the soleus or gastrocnemius in order to create an artificial restriction of dorsiflexion ankle movement. A linear regression from the ankle plantar-dorsiflexion angle pattern was performed on 0-5 % of the gait cycle (first rocker) and on 12-31 % of the gait cycle (second rocker) to compute the slope of the curve. The proportion of participants with the presence of the first and second rocker was then computed. A Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) analysis assessed the kinematic variations among different degrees of emulated contractures. FINDINGS The first and second rockers are completely absent from 10° of plantarflexion emulated contracture. The data indicate there was a non-linear shift of the gait pattern of the ankle kinematics and an important shift toward plantarflexion values with the loss of the rockers. INTERPRETATION This study suggests that toe-walking in the experimental simulation situation is not necessarily due to a high emulated contracture level and can occur with a small emulated contracture by an adaptation choice. This study may improve interpretation of clinical gait analysis and shows that the link between the level of gastrocnemius/soleus emulated contracture and progression of toe-walking (increased plantarflexion during gait) is not linear.

What can we learn from the relationship between gait deviations and clinical impairments when comparing two databases? Gait Posture 2022; 98:261-265. [PMID: 36209688 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2022.09.072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2021] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several previous studies have tried to determine the relationship between gait and clinical impairments in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). The heterogeneity of the population and the methodology used could explain the discrepancy within the results. Recently, Papageorgiou et al. (2019) used a Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) analysis to investigate this relationship, allowing to test across the kinematic waveforms parameters. RESEARCH QUESTION Are we able to replicate the results of Papageorgiou et al. (2019) on a population of children with CP from another center? METHODS Retrospectively, youth with spastic unilateral (uCP) or bilateral (bCP) CP (3-18 years of age) who underwent a clinical gait analysis at the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG) were screened. Following Papageorgiou et al. 2019, the same inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as the same methodology were applied. Mann-Whitney-U test was used to compare the impairments score between the two centers. A Student T-Test using SPM was applied to compare the kinematic waveforms from the two centers. A canonical correlation analysis using SPM was realized to assess the relationship between clinical impairments and the combined sagittal motion of the pelvis, hip, knee and ankle. RESULTS AND SIGNIFICANCE A total of 211 patients were included with 131 uCP (10 [8-14] years old) and 80 bCP (11 [7-14] years old). The distribution of the Gross Motor Function Classification System levels and the proportion of previous treatment differs between centers. In both CP groups, significant differences were observed in the composite score and lower limb kinematics, reflecting less impaired patients with CP at HUG compared to Papagergiou et al. (2019). While similar associations between spasticity and kinematic were observed in both centers, the association with muscle weakness, selectivity, and range of motion differed.

Contribution of Different Impairments to Restricted Knee Flexion during Gait in Individuals with Cerebral Palsy. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12101568. [PMID: 36294708 PMCID: PMC9604873 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12101568] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The coexistence of overlapping impairments modulates the knee pattern in the swing phase of walking in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The impact and contribution of each impairment to the reduction of knee range-of-motion is unknown. The aim of the study was to establish the gradation of the impact of individual coexisting impairments on the knee flexion range-of-motion. Passive range-of-motion, selective motor control, strength, and spasticity from 132 patients (Male = 76, Female = 56, age:11 ± 4 years) with spastic CP were tested with clinical tools. Knee flexion range-of-motion at terminal stance, pre-swing, and initial swing phases were assessed by gait analysis. Hypertonia (β = −5.75) and weakness (β = 2.76) of knee extensors were associated with lower range of knee flexion (R2 = 0.0801, F = 11.0963, p < 0.0001). The predictive factors (R2 = 0.0744, F = 7.2135, p < 0.0001) were strength (β = 4.04) and spasticity (β = −2.74) of knee extensors and strength of hip flexors (β = −2.01); in swing those were knee extensors hypertonia (β = −2.55) and passive range of flexion (β = 0.16) (R2 = 0.0398, F = 3.4010, p = 0.01). Hypertonia of knee extensors has the strongest impact on knee flexion range-of-motion; secondary is the strength of knee extensors. The knee extensors strength with knee extensors hypertonia and strength of hip flexors contributes in stance. Knee extensors hypertonia with passive knee flexion range-of-motion contributes in swing.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify the relationships between clinical impairments and gait deviations in children with cerebral palsy (CP). A retrospective convenience sample of 367 children with CP was selected (3–18 years old) and divided in two groups based on clinical symptomatology [unilateral (uCP) / bilateral CP (bCP), (n = 167/200)]. All children underwent a three-dimensional gait analysis and a standardized clinical examination. Gait was inspected on a vector level (all sagittal motions combined), and an individual joint level (pelvis, hip, knee and ankle joint motions). Statistical non-parametric mapping was applied to identify specific parts of the gait cycle displaying relationships between the gait deviations of both groups and the impairment scores of spasticity, weakness, selectivity, and passive range of motion. Impairment scores were summarized in two ways: a) composite impairment scores (e.g. combined spasticity of all assessed muscles acting around the hip, knee and ankle joints) and b) joint specific impairment scores (e.g. spasticity of the muscles acting around the knee joint). Results showed that the vector and most of the individual motions were related to the composite scores. Direct and carry-over relationships were found between certain individual motions and joint impairment scores (around the same or neighboring joints, respectively). All correlations were more prominent for children with bCP compared to uCP, especially regarding the relationships of gait deviations with weakness and reduced selectivity. In conclusion, this study enabled the mapping of relationships between clinical impairments and gait deviations in children with CP, by identifying specific parts of the gait cycle that are related to each of these impairments. These results provide a comprehensive description of these relationships, while simultaneously highlighting the differences between the two CP groups. Integration of these findings could lead to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of gait deviations and, eventually, support individualized treatment planning.

Abstract
In the context of neuro-orthopedic pathologies affecting walking and thus patients' quality of life, understanding the mechanisms of gait deviations and identifying the causal motor impairments is of primary importance. Beside other approaches, neuromusculoskeletal simulations may be used to provide insight into this matter. To the best of our knowledge, no computational framework exists in the literature that allows for predictive simulations featuring muscle co-contractions, and the introduction of various types of perturbations during both healthy and pathological gait types. The aim of this preliminary study was to adapt a recently proposed EMG-marker tracking optimization process to a lower limb musculoskeletal model during equinus gait, a multiphase problem with contact forces. The resulting optimization method tracking EMG, ground reactions forces, and marker trajectories allowed an accurate reproduction of joint kinematics (average error of 5.4 ± 3.3 mm for pelvis translations, and 1.9 ± 1.3° for pelvis rotation and joint angles) and ensured good temporal agreement in muscle activity (the concordance between estimated and measured excitations was 76.8 ± 5.3 %) in a relatively fast process (3.88 ± 1.04 h). We have also highlighted that the tracking of ground reaction forces was possible and accurate (average error of 17.3 ± 5.5 N), even without the use of a complex foot-ground contact model.

Kinematics can help to discriminate the implication of iliopsoas, hamstring and gastrocnemius contractures to a knee flexion gait pattern. Gait Posture 2019; 68:415-422. [PMID: 30594869 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2018.12.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2018] [Revised: 11/27/2018] [Accepted: 12/21/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive Knee Flexion Gait Pattern (KFGP) is a common gait deviation in many pathological conditions. The contractures of the muscles that have been identified as being responsible of KFGP are: iliopsoas, hamstring and gastrocnemius. RESEARCH QUESTION How do isolated contractures of the iliopsoas, hamstrings and gastrocnemius impact knee flexion during gait? METHODS Three levels of contracture (mild, moderate and severe) were simulated bilaterally using an exoskeleton on 10 healthy participants for iliopsoas, hamstring and gastrocnemius muscles. A gait analysis session was performed to evaluate the joint kinematics according to the different simulated contractures. Thirty one parameters were chosen to analyze the kinematics of the thorax, pelvis, hip, knee and ankle. A principal component analysis (PCA) was used to determine the kinematic parameters influenced by contractures. RESULTS In addition to a permanent knee flexion observed for the three muscles with contracture: the contracture of the iliopsoas induces a large hip flexion with pronounced anterior pelvis tilt; the contracture of the hamstrings induces an ankle dorsiflexion during the support phase with a posterior pelvis tilt; the contracture of the gastrocnemius induces an absence of first and second rocker of the ankle with a slight flexion of hip and a slight anterior pelvis tilt. SIGNIFICANCE These results support the identification of the muscles responsible for a KFGP. A better knowledge of the interactions between contractures and associated joint kinematics of the same and adjacent joints will support the interpretation of gait analyses by more precisely and faster targeting the concerned muscle.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ankle plantarflexion contracture results from a permanent shortening of the muscle-tendon complex. It often leads to gait alterations. The objective of this study was to compare the kinematic adaptations of different degrees of contractures and between isolated bilateral gastrocnemius and soleus emulated contractures using an exoskeleton. METHODS Eight combinations of contractures were emulated bilaterally on 10 asymptomatic participants using an exoskeleton that was able to emulate different degrees of contracture of gastrocnemius (biarticular muscle) and soleus (monoarticular muscle), corresponding at 0°, 10°, 20°, and 30° ankle plantarflexion contracture (knee-flexed and knee-extended). Range of motion was limited by ropes attached for soleus on heel and below the knee and for gastrocnemius on heel and above the knee. A gait analysis session was performed to evaluate the effect of these different emulated contractures on the Gait Profile Score, walking speed and gait kinematics. RESULTS Gastrocnemius and soleus contractures influence gait kinematics, with an increase of the Gait Profile Score. Significant differences were found in the kinematics of the ankles, knees and hips. Contractures of soleus cause a more important decrease in the range of motion at the ankle than the same degree of gastrocnemius contractures. Gastrocnemius contractures cause greater knee flexion (during the stance phase) and hip flexion (during all the gait cycle) than the same level of soleus contractures. CONCLUSION These results can support the interpretation of the Clinical Gait Analysis data by providing a better understanding of the effect of isolate contracture of soleus and gastrocnemius on gait kinematics.

Abstract
In this work, postoperative lower limb kinematics are predicted with respect to preoperative kinematics, physical examination and surgery data. Data of 115 children with cerebral palsy that have undergone single-event multilevel surgery were considered. Preoperative data dimension was reduced utilizing principal component analysis. Then, multiple linear regressions with 80% confidence intervals were performed between postoperative kinematics and bilateral preoperative kinematics, 36 physical examination variables and combinations of 9 different surgical procedures. The mean prediction errors on test vary from 4° (pelvic obliquity and hip adduction) to 10° (hip rotation and foot progression), depending on the kinematic angle. The unilateral mean sizes of the confidence intervals vary from 5° to 15°. Frontal plane angles are predicted with the lowest errors, however the same performance is achieved when considering the postoperative average signals. Sagittal plane angles are better predicted than transverse plane angles, with statistical differences with respect to the average postoperative kinematics for both plane's angles except for ankle dorsiflexion. The mean prediction errors are smaller than the variability of gait parameters in cerebral palsy. The performance of the system is independent of the preoperative state severity of the patient. Even if the system is not yet accurate enough to define a surgery plan, it shows an unbiased estimation of the most likely outcome, which can be useful for both the clinician and the patient. More patients' data are necessary for improving the precision of the model in order to predict the kinematic outcome of a large number of possible surgeries and gait patterns.
