Development and Feasibility Study of the Home-based Gait Rehabilitation Service by Using the Insole-type Gait Analysis Device for Children With Cerebral Palsy
Walking is a crucial daily activity that requires complex coordination of muscular systems. It is essential for bone and muscle health, cardiovascular fitness, and activities of daily living, making it an important indicator of prognosis and patient function. Insole gait analysis devices are affordable and easy to use, and they align well with standardized 3D gait analysis. However, their use outside of hospital settings is limited. This study aims to assess the usability and satisfaction of utilizing insole gait analysis devices for monitoring and providing feedback on the walking status of children with cerebral palsy exhibiting walking impairments in a home environment. Additionally, adherence to a home-based exercise program developed in this study will be evaluated.
