Abstract

Background: The GAITRite® system is one of the gold standards for gait electronic analysis, especially for older adults. Previous GAITRite® systems were composed of an electronic roll-up walkway. Recently, a new GAITRite® electronic walkway, named CIRFACE, was commercialized. It is composed of a changeable association of stiff plates, unlike previous models. Are the gait parameters measured similar between these two walkways among older adults and according to the cognitive status, the history of falls, and the use of walking aids? Methods: In this retrospective observational study, 95 older ambulatory participants (mean, 82.6 ± 5.8 years) were included. Ten spatio-temporal gait parameters were measured simultaneously with the two GAITRite® systems in older adults while walking at comfortable self-selected pace. The GAITRite® Platinum Plus Classic (26’) was superimposed on the GAITRite® CIRFACE (VI). Comparisons between the parameters of the two walkways were performed using Bravais-Pearson correlation, between-method differences (corresponding to bias), percentage errors and Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC2,1). Subgroup analyses were performed according to the cognitive status, the history of falls in the last 12 months and the use of walking aids. Results: The whole walk parameters recorded by the two walkways were extremely correlated with a Bravais-Pearson correlation coefficient ranging from 0.968 to 0.999, P
