Actual (reported)The Dynamic Gait Index
The Dynamic Gait Index measures functionality and dynamic balance in walking and stair climbing. The DGI consists of 8 items including normal gait on flat ground, gait with speed changes, gait with horizontal head movements, gait with vertical head movements, gait and pivot turn, gait and step over obstacle, gait around obstacles and steps up and down stairs. The performance on each item is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (severe disorder) to 3 (independent walking). The total score is 24.
