Study in review: Comparison of results for body-mounted inertial sensor assessment with final lameness determination in 1,224 equids Study by: Shannon K. Reed, DVM, MS; Joanne Kramer, DVM, MS; Lori Thombs, PhD; Jael B. Pitts, DVM, MS; David A. Wilson, DVM, MS and Kevin G. Keegan, DVM, MS, DACVS This month’s Journal Watch breaks down the largest study to date using body-mounted inertial sensors for the evaluation of lameness and how the information can be used in the clinical evaluation of equine lameness. This study, Comparison of results for body-mounted inertial sensor assessment with final lameness determination in 1224...

Study in Review: Variation in Gait Parameters Used in Objective Lameness Assessment in Sound Horses at the Trot on the Straight Line and the Lunge A. M. Hardeman F. M. Serra Bragança J. H. Swagemakers P. R. van Weeren L. Roepstorff First published in Equine Veterinary Journal: 16 January 2019 | https://doi.org/10.1111/evj.13075 This study looked at the variability of vertical movement of the head, withers, and pelvis as objective lameness measurements in horses perceived not lame by their owners (and evaluated by a veterinarian as less than grade 1/5 lame on the AAEP scale). Variability was assessed between...

Journal Reviewed: Effects of sensor position on kinematic data obtained with an inertial sensor system during gait analysis of trotting horses. Moorman VJ, Frisbie DD, Kawcak CE, McIlwraith CW. Journal of American Veterinary Medical Association | 2017 Mar 1;250(5):548-553z This study assessed the effects of altering the right forelimb gyroscope and pelvic accelerometer from their midline position on forelimb and hind limb lameness results. The right forelimb sensor was placed 2cm medial and lateral to the dorsal midline surface of the pastern. The pelvic sensor was placed 2cm cranial to, caudal to, and left and right of the...
