Abstract Summary
Gait analysis is essential in orthotics and prosthetics (O&P) practice. This pilot study aimed to determine the reliability of a simple 2D video-software analysis tool and to compare it with 3D gait laboratory. Gait trials were undertaken with 10 able-bodied participants. The 2D video-software system showed good validity with regard to the measured kinematic data in comparison to the gold standard 3D motion analysis laboratory. There were no significant differences between the 2D video-software and 3D motion analysis with respect to the measured kinematic variables (P>0.05).
