Assessment of foot pathology during walking should form an integral part of the clinical evaluation of children. Simple observation and video recording have limitations and are not quantifiable. Three-dimensional analysis of foot motion during walking can provide invaluable information on the dynamic function of the foot and can contribute to clinical decision making. As motion analysis technology advances, the accuracy and reliability of the dynamic assessment of the foot during walking will increase further, allowing clinicians to rely confidently on this information during patient assessment and the study of treatment outcomes. It is logical to expect that objective and quantifiable assessment of gait should be undertaken before and after treatment that sets gait improvement as one of its aims.
在儿童临床评估中,对行走过程中足部病理状况的评估应成为不可或缺的一部分。单纯的观察和视频记录存在局限性且无法量化。对行走过程中足部运动进行三维分析,可为足部动态功能提供宝贵信息,并有助于临床决策。随着运动分析技术的进步,行走过程中足部动态评估的准确性和可靠性将进一步提高,使临床医生在患者评估和治疗效果研究中能够自信地依赖这些信息。合乎逻辑的是,对于以改善步态为目标之一的治疗,应在治疗前后进行客观且可量化的步态评估。
