The effect of inaccurate initial contact events on kinematics in healthy and pathological gait

These results highlight the importance of accurately identified IC events in CGA to ensure reliable data. Based on our results, we recommend adopting stricter error tolerance thresholds of 13.3 ms to 20.0 ms (i.e., two to three frames at 150 Hz) for gait event detection algorithms to reduce potential errors in clinical assessments.
