Intra- and inter-therapist reliability of lower-limb inter-joint coordination during gait in individuals with and without cerebral palsy.

A study published in Gait & Posture examined how consistently physical therapists can measure lower-limb joint coordination patterns during walking in both neurotypical individuals and those with cerebral palsy. Researchers assessed both within-therapist and between-therapist consistency of these inter-joint coordination metrics, which is critical before such measures can be reliably applied in clinical gait analysis. The findings contribute to validating coordination-based outcome measures for use in CP rehabilitation and movement assessment.
