Considerations for optimising the design of rigid ankle-foot orthoses for children with cerebral palsy. (2025)
Thesis

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the leading cause of childhood motor disabilities, resulting in a
variety of gait impairments. Ankle-foot Orthoses (AFOs) are key to managing these im-
pairments, aiming to facilitate weight-bearing activities and normalise l... Read More about Considerations for optimising the design of rigid ankle-foot orthoses for children with cerebral palsy..

Pathway to Postgraduate Success (2024)
Data

Postgraduate students often face significant challenges during their transition into higher education, including socio-cognitive stressors, cultural shock, and the balancing of academic and personal responsibilities. Further to this they are often ju... Read More about Pathway to Postgraduate Success.

Navigating the integration of knowledge and research evidence in clinical practice for children's foot health: A multi‐professional survey (2024)
Journal Article
Hodgson, L., Price, C., Reay, J., Nester, C., & Morrison, S. C. (2024). Navigating the integration of knowledge and research evidence in clinical practice for children's foot health: A multi‐professional survey. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 17(3), Article e12034. https://doi.org/10.1002/jfa2.12034

Background: Access to clinical services for children with foot and ankle problems are important, but unravelling the complexity of practice and service delivery can be challenging. The pursuit and implementation of research evidence is critical for d...

A step in the right direction : Delphi consensus on a UK and Australian paediatric podiatry curriculum (2022)
Journal Article
Reay, J., Williams, C., Nester, C., & Morrison, S. (2022). A step in the right direction : Delphi consensus on a UK and Australian paediatric podiatry curriculum. BMC Medical Education, 22(1), 125. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-022-03138-8

Previous research shows considerable variation in pre-registration paediatric podiatry curricula, and thus the clinical skills realised prior to graduation. Whilst pre-registration training is guided by regulatory bodies, these high level principles...

Repeatability of the Oxford Foot Model : comparison of a team of assessors with different backgrounds and no prior experience of the Oxford Foot Model (2021)
Journal Article

Research question:
What is the intra- and inter-assessor error of the Oxford Foot Model (OFM) during healthy adult walking when applied by three assessors with different professional backgrounds and lower limb marker placement experience, not native...

Are there common walking gait characteristics in patients diagnosed with late-onset Pompe disease? (2021)
Journal Article
Starbuck, C., Reay, J., Silk, E., Roberts, M., Hendriksz, C., & Jones, R. (2021). Are there common walking gait characteristics in patients diagnosed with late-onset Pompe disease?. Human Movement Science, 77, 102777. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.humov.2021.102777

Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a rare disease, defined as a progressive accumulation of lysosomal glycogen resulting in muscle weakness and respiratory problems. Anecdotally, individuals often have difficulties walking, yet, there is no three dim...

Measuring the functional and clinical effectiveness of a passive dynamic ankle foot orthosis when used to rehabilitate complex limb salvage post lower limb blast trauma (2020)
Thesis
Bennett, N. Measuring the functional and clinical effectiveness of a passive dynamic ankle foot orthosis when used to rehabilitate complex limb salvage post lower limb blast trauma. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Summary: Studies suggest passive dynamic ankle foot orthoses (PD AFO) are effective at improving gait and patient reported outcomes measures (PROM) in personnel who have undergone limb salvage due to blast trauma. Studies using PD AFOs have included...

The effect on conventional gait model kinematics and kinetics of hip joint centre equations in adult healthy gait (2019)
Journal Article
Leboeuf, F., Reay, J., Jones, R., & Sangeux, M. (2019). The effect on conventional gait model kinematics and kinetics of hip joint centre equations in adult healthy gait. Journal of Biomechanics, 87(Apr 19), 167-171. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2019.02.010

The Conventional Gait Model (CGM) needs to benefit from large investigations on localization of the hip joint centre (HJC). Incorrect positions from the native equations were demonstrated (Sangeux et al., 2014; Harrington et al., 2007). More accurate...

Background: The Conventional Gait Model (CGM), known by a variety of different names, is widely used in clinical gait analysis. We present pyCGM2, an open-source implementation of the CGM with two versions. The first, CGM1.0, is a clone of Vicon Plug...

Developed during the 1990s, the Conventional Gait Model (CGM), distributed as Vicon Plugin gait (Vicon PiG), has formed the basis of gait analysis in many clinical gait analysis services. However, it is also associated with several shortcomings and p... Read More about CGM2 : proposal of an evolved conventional gait model.
