Abstract

Objective
The aim of this study is to present the basic reference data of age and sex specific gait parameters for Korean adults.


Method
The basic gait parameters were extracted from 70 healthy adults, 38 men and 32women, 21 to 69 years of age using VICON 340 Motion Analyzer.


Results
The temporal gait parameters and kinematic parameters of Korean adults were similar to other western reference data.


Conclusion
Significant sex differences exist in the maximal pelvic tilting, pelvic internal rotation and foot internal rotation and plantar flexion. There is a statistically significant age variability for the hip and knee flexion at stance phase.

Key Words: 3-dimensional motion analyzer, Gait analysis, Normal gait parameter
