Test-Retest Reliability of PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> Gait Analysis Insoles
It is recognized that gait analysis is a powerful tool used to capture human locomotion and quantify the related parameters. PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> insoles have been designed to provide accurate measurements for gait analysis. PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> insoles are lightweight, sli...

It is recognized that gait analysis is a powerful tool used to capture human locomotion and quantify the related parameters. PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> insoles have been designed to provide accurate measurements for gait analysis. PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> insoles are lightweight, slim and cost-effective. A recent publication presented the characteristics and data concerning the validity of PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> insoles in gait analysis. In literature, there is still no evidence about the repeatability of PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> gait analysis system. Such evidence is essential in order to use this device in both research and clinical settings. The aim of the present study was to assess the repeatability of PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> system. In this context, it was hypothesized that the parameters of gait analysis captured by PODOSmart<sup>®</sup> would be repeatable.
