초록
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of anterior walker and posterior walker on gait parameters and body alignment of children with cerebral palsy. The intraclass correlation coefficient was .99 for intertester reliability. Intratesterreliability was between .96 and .99. The use of posterior walker increased gait velocity and facilitated more upright posture. The measurement of joint angel program was found to be reliable to measure range of motion. This study has a limitationofgeneralizing the results to all children with cerebral palsy. Research is required to investigate the effect of posterior walker on energy efficiency.
