N2 - Despite the plethora of information on human gait analysis, its continued use as a clinical tool remains uncertain. Analysis of gait dysfunction has become integral to podiatric medical practice, and, like many specialized fields, it is rapidly changing to meet the needs of the future. Practice in the 21st century is predicated on the concept of multidisciplinary working approaches and a growing trend toward evidence-based practice, in which gait analysis could play a prominent role. This article provides a historical synopsis of instrumented gait analysis and its associated subcomponents and discusses the salient issues concerning its future role in podiatric medicine.
