Neurodevelopment in preschool idiopathic toe-walkers.
INTRODUCTION Idiopathic toe walking, a differential diagnosis for neurological and orthopaedic disorders, has been associated with neurodevelopmental alterations. Neurodevelopmental assessment at early ages using specific tests may improve management and follow-up of these patients. The aim of our study is to analyse the neurodevelopmental characteristics of preschool idiopathic toe-walkers (IT...
متن کاملDynamic pedobarographic classification of idiopathic toe-walkers for therapeutical indication
Idiopathic toe-walkers (ITWs) pedobarographic analysis has not been described yet nor its possible relationship with orthopedical and developmental characteristics. The objective of this research is to develop a dynamic pedobarographic classification of ITWs to propose a specific therapeutical approach. Through an observational study, 56 ITWs aged 3-6 years were classified by their initial foot...
متن کاملSerial casting in the treatment of idiopathic toe-walkers and review of the literature.

True idiopathic toe-walking is a rare referral, representing approximately 1:100 new patients seen in the Paediatric Orthopaedic Clinic.

متن کاملUse of Multi-segment Foot Kinematics to Distinguish Idiopathic Toe-walkers, Children with Cerebral Palsy, and Typically Developing Children
Multi-segment foot kinematics were compared between idiopathic toe walkers (ITW) and typically developing children (TD) during toe walking and also compared to children with mild diplegic cerebral palsy (CP) who toe walked. Where possible, heel-toe walking was also compared between ITW and TD children. Significant differences were found between the ITW and TD groups during both toe walking and ...
متن کاملIdiopathic toe walking and sensory processing dysfunction
BACKGROUND It is generally understood that toe walking involves the absence or limitation of heel strike in the contact phase of the gait cycle. Toe walking has been identified as a symptom of disease processes, trauma and/or neurogenic influences. When there is no obvious cause of the gait pattern, a diagnosis of idiopathic toe walking (ITW) is made. Although there has been limited research in...
