The college establishes community partnerships with hospitals, private clinics, outpatient and rehab centers, community agencies, and public and private schools to conduct collaborative research. These valued partnerships provide a robust environment in which to gather significant data on those individuals who can benefit the most from the research results. Studies that require state-of-the art equipment such as for balance testing and gait analysis are conducted in the off-campus lab. Other portable equipment, such as US imaging and surface EMG, is available for use in the community partner\u2019s clinical setting.<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"my-48 md:mt-96 md:mb-72\" vue-app>\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"app-gutter\">\n      <div class=\"relative md:flex md:justify-end\">\n        <div class=\"app-gutter\">\n                                  <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"md:absolute md:-top-32 md:left-0 w-full md:w-5\/12 lg:w-6\/12 h-240 sm:h-320 md:h-full object-cover rounded-t-5 md:rounded-8\" src=\"\/media\/health-sciences\/images\/030822-biomechanics-gait-lab-060.jpg\" srcset=\"\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 50vw, 100vw\" alt=\"Gait analysis with College of Health Sciences physical therapy students led by associate chair Dr. Jeffrey Fairley.\">\n                  <\/div>\n        <div class=\"md:w-8\/12 xl:w-7\/12 app-gutter\">\n          <div class=\"p-32 sm:p-40 md:px-0 md:py-80 rounded-b-5 md:rounded-8 bg-red\">\n            <div class=\"md:ml-1\/8 lg:ml-1\/4 xl:ml-1\/7 md:px-40 lg:px-80\">\n                              \t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"text-lockup text-lockup--red\">\n\t<h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t-h2-serif  block text-yellow\">Gait<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t-h2-sans  block text-white\">Analysis Lab <\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wysiwyg-content t-p2 mt-24 text-white\">In the high tech, state-of-the-art Gait Analysis Lab, CHS students work side-by-side with faculty to gain hands-on experience in studying the science of body in walking motion.

The SATCo provides a systematic method of assessing discrete levels of trunk control in children with motor disabilities.  It has been shown to have excellent to good reliability and validity for typical infants and for children with a variety of diagnoses.  Adults who lack independent sitting are often excluded from research and intervention due to challenges with posture control and there are currently no outcome measures for partial trunk control in the adult population.  The aims of this study will address barriers to use of SATCo in adults and determine the clinical relevance and applicability of a segmental approach for adults with neurologic deficits. <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":61,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-5252","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5252","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5252"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5252\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9845,"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5252\/revisions\/9845"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/61"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/health-sciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
