Similarly to the Gait TriPlane ADplot a Gait PerPlane ADplot is a Multi ADplot that allows to assess the Asymmetry & Deviation observed seperatly in the three Planes of motion ( the sagittal, the frontal and the transverse).
In three Multi ADplots, are summarized, all the graphs of the four body levels of the Gait Kinematics report. In the Gait PerPlane ADplot, each point on the plot is identified by the a digit.
The digit referes to the body level:
- P for Pelvis Level
- H for Hip Level
- K for Knee Level
- A for Ankle/Foot Level
For each Multi ADplot two extra points are plotted using the the asterisk symbol (*) . These points are showing the mean Asymmetry and Deviation observed for all body levels in the specific plane. On the top left of the ADplot the values of the mean Deviation indexes are shown and on the bottom right the mean Asymmetry index.

The Gait Report may be combined with the TriPlane ADplot and the Gait PerPlane ADplot to provide all the information needed for a more qantitative aproach in the analysis.

Figure 2. Gait kinematics report combined with a TriPlane and a PerPlane ADplot.
The above example graphs were collected from a Douchen Myopathy patient.
From the TriPlane ADplot it is visible that Pelvis (2.08-2.31) and Ankle/Foot (1.56-1.73) levels are more involved while knee (1.09-1.09) and hip (1.08-1.41) levels are showing a light involvement. From the PerPlane ADplot it is visible that the transverse (1.50-2.05) plane is more involved than the sagital (1.77-1.43) and the frontal plane (1.08-1.43).
Also enhanced comparisons and quantitative documentation can be performed by utilizing the GGDIs and GGAIs included in the Kinematics Graphs.
