Overview: The document provides a comprehensive list of biomechanical models and analyses using Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). It categorizes various biomechanical assessments based on the number of IMUs used, ranging from 1 to 18. The document includes both English and Spanish descriptions of the models and analyses.
Key Sections:
- IMU-Based Biomechanical Models: The list specifies the number of IMUs required for each biomechanical model, ranging from basic gait analysis to full body assessments. The models are designed to analyze different body parts and movements, such as wrists, shoulders, elbows, knees, hips, and more.
- Specific Tests and Assessments: The document details various mobility tests and functional assessments, including shoulder mobility tests, epicondylitis tests, and complete spine functional assessments. These tests are available for both left and right sides of the body.
- Gait Analysis: Several types of gait analyses are mentioned, including basic gait analysis, lower body gait analysis with and without specific body parts, and full body gait analysis in different stances. Some analyses include additional parameters like spine and heel involvement.
- Language Variants: The document provides descriptions in both English and Spanish, ensuring accessibility for a broader audience.
Critical Information:
- Requirements: The number of IMUs required for each model is clearly specified, which is crucial for setting up the biomechanical assessments accurately.
- Parameters and Limitations: Each model and test is designed for specific body parts and movements, indicating the scope and limitations of each analysis.
- Best Practices: The document implies the importance of using the correct number of IMUs and following the specified procedures for accurate biomechanical analysis.
