CanidGait®

Product catalog summary

Introduction
CanidGait® is a stance and gait analysis system designed for dogs, developed by zebris Medical GmbH. It is used for diagnostics, therapy, and rehabilitation of gait disorders in dogs, providing precise analysis through a treadmill or platform equipped with a calibrated pressure sensor matrix and synchronized cameras.

System Specifications
The system includes a treadmill or platform with high-precision, robust, and individually calibrated capacitive pressure sensors. The treadmill has a tread surface area of 200 x 46 cm, speed range of 0.4 to 20 km/h, and an incline adjustment of +10% to -5%. The sensor surface measures 163 x 41 cm with 9,216 sensors and a sampling rate of 200 Hz. The platform has a surface area of 212 x 60.5 cm, sensor surface of 203 x 54.2 cm, and 15,360 sensors with a sampling rate of 100 Hz, optionally 200 Hz. Two platforms can be combined to increase the sensor area.

Analysis and Reporting
The system provides detailed analysis of gait parameters such as step lengths, gait cycle length, speed, cadence, and stance and swing phase distribution. It presents contact forces and pressure distribution patterns of each paw, along with the trajectory of the center of pressure. The analysis report includes numerical values and bar graphs for easy interpretation, and it can compare results from two records to monitor therapy efficiency.

Features and Benefits
CanidGait® allows for early diagnosis of incipient lameness by revealing functional deficits not visible to the naked eye. The system offers slow-motion roll-off details of the animal, enabling direct measurement of limb joint angles on a display screen. It is compatible with a commercially available PC running Windows 10 and can be delivered with a notebook or an all-in-one touch PC.

Conclusion
CanidGait® leverages zebris Medical GmbH's expertise in biomechanical gait and stance analysis, providing a comprehensive and scientifically sound diagnostic tool for veterinary medicine. It simplifies the analysis and documentation of stance and gait anomalies in dogs, facilitating targeted treatment and rehabilitation.
