  • A standard for Functional Movement Analysis

    Dear Biomch-L readers,

    Yesterday I received a newsletter with the slightly temerarious name THE
    STANDARD. It is the Spring 1991 issue of a new publication from Oxford
    Metrics of Botley, Oxford, U.K., one of the larger producers of 3-D
    biokinematics equipment, with major emphasis on gait analysis.

    While commercial interests cannot be denied, THE STANDARD provides some
    interesting and (I feel) objective information of a pre-competitive nature.
    The first issue (6 pp.) contains the following:


    Welcome to THE STANDARD,
    Peter Meddings, Marketing Manager, Oxford Metrics

    Practical Planning to Establish a Gait Laboratory,
    Martin Lyster, Oxford Metrics

    Recent Advances in the Treatment of Cerebral Palsy,
    James R. Gage M.D., Gilette Children's Hospital, St. Paul, MN/USA

    Starting a Gait Analysis Laboratory,
    Susan Sienko Thomas B.Sc., the Chicago Children's Memorial Hospital

    Literature Update

    I might add, perhaps, that Oxford Metrics has been the major industrial
    partner in the 1989-1991 CAMARC project ("Computer Aided Movement Analysis
    in a Rehabilitation Context") under the European Communities' Advanced
    Informatics in Medicine (AIM) action, which is currently in the proposal
    phase for a three-year continuation. Standardisation is an important
    component of this proposal.

    subsequent book announcement; thus, it is being reposted now).
