- In particular, gait analysis is especially useful in the case of cerebral palsy children. Through the additional information provided by 3-D gait analysis, orthopedic surgeons can make better decisions regarding corrective surgery in an effort to improve the mobility and gait of many cerebral palsy children. It has been shown that with the addition of gait analysis, the number of surgeries is reduced and the outcome improved by providing the surgeon with a more accurate and detailed report of the biomechanics involved in a child's gait. ...

- Crutch Gait.
- Types of Crutch Gait.
- As opposed to underarm crutches, forearm crutches allow a user to adapt his gait depending on physical challenge, personal preference and level of fatigue.
- 4-POINT ALTERNATE GAIT.
- A slow but stable gait which can be used by any individual able to move each leg separately and bear considerable weight on each foot.
- 2-POINT ALTERNATE GAIT.
- Slightly faster than a 4-point gait but requires more balance. This type of gait most closely resembles normal walking.
- 3-POINT ALTERNATE GAIT.
- SWING-TO GAIT.
- Faster than any gait above, swing-to is the normal progression to swing-through gait. The movement of the legs is parallel and this type of gait requires considerable arm and upper body strength to support the entire body weight.
- SWING-THROUGH GAIT.
- The advantages of possessing skill in more than one gait is twofold: a user can adopt a slow or fast gait as he wishes and, since each gait requires a different combination of muscles, he can change when he becomes fatigued!.
