Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL)

  The GOAL consists of 49 items grouped into seven domains: domain A, activities of daily living and independence; domain B, gait function and mobility; domain C, pain, discomfort, and fatigue; domain D, physical activities, sports, and recreation; domain E, gait pattern and appearance; domain F, use of braces and mobility aids; and domain G, body image and self-esteem. Domains A, B, D, and E consist of 6-point Likert scales changing from extremely difficult to no problem at all. Domain C consists of 5-point Likert scales changing from everyday to none of the time. Domains F and G, consist of 5-point Likert scales changing from very unhappy to very happy. Domain and total GOAL scores were calculated for each child and ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).
