The Rivermead Visual Gait Assessment (RVGA) is a widely used observational gait assessment tool. It is designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of an individual's gait pattern, focusing on various aspects such as posture, movement, and coordination. The RVGA is particularly useful in clinical settings for assessing patients with neurological disorders, such as stroke, cerebral palsy, or traumatic brain injuries.
The Rivermead Visual Gait Assessment is a clinical tool designed to evaluate the quality of a patient's gait. Unlike high-tech 3D motion capture labs, the RVGA relies on direct observation. It was originally developed at the Rivermead Rehabilitation Centre in Oxford, UK, to provide a standardized method for physiotherapists to assess stroke patients and those with other neurological conditions. rivermeadvisualgaitassessmentpdfdownload new
