Abstract
Materials and methods 2 asymptomatic adults, with similar physical feature. They wear a thoracolumbar bivalve brace, made with the same protocol (using CAD CAM) for reproducibility. We design the braces according to the principles of the brace immobilization: a good grip on the waist and overall tightening supports on the abdomen, thorax and lumbar. We use the gait analysis system Vicon. To use this system, we make holes in the brace at the location of the markers. Each person walks 6-8 trials in the gait analysis system with and without the brace.
Highlights
In the literature many articles explain that it is essential to have a femoral brace to restricted pelvic motion during gait
This preliminary experimentation allowed us to see that we could use the gait analysis system to evaluate the efficiency of brace
The kinematic curves of the pelvic motion compared to the laboratory standard show that there is a significant decrease in the movement of the pelvis
