2015 GCMAS Annual Conference
 

GCMAS 2015 Symposium - Saturday, March 21 1:30 to 4:30pm
“Foot Modeling: Common Techniques and Clinical Applications”

The focus of the symposium will be the clinical utilization of multi-segment foot models in clinical gait analysis.  The audience should leave with some specific connections (ranging from fully realized to probable to potential) between quantitative multi-segment foot kinematics and treatment options.

Objectives:
Clinical Symposium: (3 hours)
At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:

  • Describe multisegment foot model kinematics
  • Describe clinical utilization of multisegment foot models in clinical gait analysis
  • Identify multisegment foot kinematics that lead to possible treatment options (e.g. surgery, bracing, PT)
  • Identify how the additional multisegment foot model data is helpful clinically
