The reliability of gait parameters captured via instrumented walkways: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Electronic pressure-sensitive walkways are commonly available solutions to quantitatively assess gait parameters for clinical and research purposes. Many studies have evaluated their measurement properties in different conditions with variable findings. In order to be informed about the current evidence of their reliability for optimal clinical and scientific decision making, this systematic review provided a quantitative synthesis of the test-retest reliability and minimal detectable change of the captured gait parameters across different test conditions (single and cognitive dual-task conditions) and population groups.

Evidence acquisition

A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Scopus until November 2021 to identify articles that examined the
