Setting: University laboratory.

[Observational gait scale for persons with lower extremity amputation. Design and content validity].

Introduction: Gait pattern is altered in persons with lower extremity amputation. To assess gait pattern, it is important to use observational gait scales with a good content validity.

Objectives: To design an observational gait scale and to analyze its content validity.

Leap motion controlled video game-based therapy for upper limb rehabilitation in patients with Parkinson's disease: a feasibility study.

Background: Non-immersive video games are currently being used as technological rehabilitation tools for individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this feasibility study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Leap Motion Controller® (LMC) system used with serious games designed for the upper limb (UL), as well as the levels of satisfaction and compliance among patients in mild-to-moderate stages of the disease.

Methods: A non-probabilistic sampling of non-consecutive cases was performed.
