About the Motion Analysis Lab at Cincinnati Children's Hospital

The Motion Analysis Lab at Cincinnati Children’s uses state-of-the-art technology to identify the complex causes of a child’s challenges with mobility. Each year, about 140 children with conditions such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida and dystonia undergo testing in the Motion Analysis Lab. Test results help the care team:

• Decide which types of intervention are likely to benefit the child, including surgery and nonsurgical treatments
• Plan the detailed steps of a selective dorsal rhizotomy or an orthopaedic surgery
• Evaluate whether the child needs orthotics or a modification to current orthotics
• Create a long-term plan to minimize the child’s total number of surgeries
• Evaluate the effects of surgery and other types of therapy
• Evaluate how the child is progressing year after year

The Motion Analysis Lab is located at the medical center’s Burnet (main) Campus. The lab team includes a biomedical engineer, kinesiologist, technicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists and an orthopaedic surgeon who all work with children every day. The appointments take about two hours.
