Eight children, who needed walkers to ambulate and who were able to use either anterior or posterior walkers, were selected for a comparative study of both types of walker. Data for gait analysis, using high-speed cinematography, were collected to determine stride length, time in double support and velocity. Trunk, hip and knee angles were also measured during four phases of the gait cycle. The results demonstrated significant improvements in both postural alignment and gait characteristics with the posterior walker.
