Gait evaluation methods may also be difficult to use, unrealistic, or lack meaningful data. Clearer guidelines, targeted education, and health care provider support are essential. Improving the usability of gait evaluation methods and their integration into clinical practice is critical. Research gaps in prosthetics, orthotics, and specific gait evaluation methods highlight the need for further investigation to enhance training and inform policy adjustments, improving patient outcomes. Future research should investigate clinician perspectives on specific gait evaluation methods, such as video vector and standardized observational gait assessments, across specialties and their different specialisms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8313,"journal":{"name":"Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation","volume":"106 10","pages":"Pages 1575-1593"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143750874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
