Starting to use IORgait

When you first start using IORgait there are some steps that you will need to take in order to get the program set up.

1. After purchasing IORgait you must install it on the computer or computers it will be used on. Detailed instructions on how to install IORgait can be found here.

2. The first time you go to use the program after it has been installed you will need to activate it. Detailed instructions on how to activate IORgait can be found here.

3. Once the program has been activated you will be taken to the login screen. At this point the user is the "admin" account which has the authority to make changes to permissions and create new users. The default password for the "admin" account is "admin".

4. After logging in as the administrator navigate to the user's screen.

5. Change the admin account's password using the Password button at the bottom left hand of the screen so that only authorized personnel may access the administrator's account.

6. At this point you may wish to create other Users or Start a Subject Session.

Setting Up User Accounts

In the likely event that there is more than one person using the IORgait program you will want to set up additional accounts.

1. Login as the administrator and navigate to the User screen by clicking on the User button at the bottom left hand side of the screen.



2. When on the User screen click on the Add User Button. This will open the Edit User Record window.



3.All user accounts require a username and a password (underlined in red). The password can be changed by the user when they login. Users can also be assigned to groups (1). This allows users who are in the same group to see each others patients, sessions and reports. At the moment a user can only belong to one group at a time. Users can be granted administrative privileges (2). A user who has administrative privileges has access to the users screen and can alter privileges and passwords for other users. They can also create and delete user accounts. Users may be granted different levels of access to Subjects (3), Sessions (4), and Reports (5). If the privilege level is set to none the user will not be able to see the page associated with the database in question. Note: if None is selected for all three databases then the user will not be able to logon since they don't have permission to see anything. If the privileges are set to Mine they will only be able to see the sections (be it a subject, session, or report) that they have created. If the privileges are set to Group then they will only be able to see the sections (be it a subject, session, or report) that a member of their group (including themselves) has created. If the privileges are set to All then they will be able to see all of the sections (be it a subject, session, or report) that are in the database regardless of who created it. If the Edit Subject Database checkbox is selected then the user will be able to edit any of the sections (be it a subject, session, or report) that they can see.

After the Patient Leaves

12. Label the data that you have collected in the lab using the list of marker names in the "Marker Placement" table. You will use the software associated with your cameras to do the labeling. For further instructions on how to label see the instructions associated with the software/hardware system that you are using.

13. Export your labeled trials to c3d. At this point you should have a file with three folders. One static calibration with the word "static" in the file name and two walking trials with the word "walk" in the file name.

14. Open IORgait and login with your user name and password. At this point you can download the sample data and use it to generate a report.

15. If this is the first time that this patient has been collected create a new subject in the Data bas by cliking the Add Subject button. If this patient has been collected before and they are already a subject in the database confirm that none of their personal information has changed and proceed to step number 17.

16. In put the following information into the Add Subject window, then click Apply. If you are using the Sample data provided above you may fill in what ever names and other information you please. This will not effect the report generated it is simply for your personal records.

• First Name
• Last Name
• Birthday
• Gender
• Address
• Subject's phone number
• Doctor's name
• Doctor's contact information
• Diagnosis
• Comments

17. Highlight the subject that you are working with and click on the Next button at the bottom right hand side of the screen to navigate to the Sessions screen.

18. Create a new session by clicking on the Add Session button.

19. Fill in all relevant fields of the report window. The required fields are C3D Folder; which you use to indicate where the subject's file of c3d data is stored (you can do this by using the Browse button). You also need to enter the movement, height and weight. At the moment the only valid entry for the movement field is WALK (the field is case sensitive). Optional fields are tag (which allows you to sort your sessions by a convention of your choosing), inter ASIS distance, left and right leg length, left and right knee width, left and right ankle width, left and right foot width, left and right arch height, as well as right and left shoe size which you may chose to record if you are using these values. However unlike height, weight, and movement IORgait does not use these values in any of its calculations. If you are working with the sample data then input a height of 1.75 m, a weight of 75 kg, and a tag of WALK.

20. Select the session that you have just created and click on Generate Report.

21. Once you start generating a report IORgait will activate Visual3D in order to begin calculations. If receive an error saying "Can not locate Visual3D.exe Check user preferences" go here for instructions on how to locate Visual3D on your computer. If you receive a window asking you to locate the appropriate file go here for instructions on how to proceed and prevent this error in the future.

22. The first pipeline breakpoint that you should see (assuming that you avoided the errors listed in 21) is one that requests that you review the model and make any adjustments needed before continuing.

23. To check the model navigate to the main page of the Visual3D and click on the "Model" button at the top tool bar.

24. There are three things that you need to check on this screen.

• First you need to look at the segment list on the left hand side of the screen. The Calibration status for all of the segments should read Yes as shown below.

• Second click on the bones button (circled below) and orientate the view screen on the right so that the subject is centered on the screen facing you. The bones should be in the correct position and orientation for a standard human being.

• Third remove the bones and inspect the coordinate systems. There should be one for each of the sections that were created, they have three axis, green (x-axis), red (y-axis), and blue(z-axis). When the subject's image is facing you the green axis should be pointing towards you, the red axis should pointing from left to right, and the blue axis should be up and down. A correct model is shown below.

25. Once all the criteria in 24 are correct click on the Resume Pipeline button in the Pipeline Breakpoint window.

26. The next Pipeline Breakpoint that you reach will be to check that the Right Foot contact is correct.

27. Use the viewer window to see which of the subjects feet is coming into contact with the force plate. You may need to adjust the orientation of the viewer to clarify the patient's left from their right. The graphics below show the right foot making contact with the first force plate. Once you confirm that the contact is correct click the Resume Pipeline button on the Pipeline Breakpoint window.

28. The next Pipeline Breakpoint that you reach will be to check that the Left Foot contact is correct.

29. Use the viewer window to see which of the subjects feet is coming into contact with the force plate. You may need to adjust the orientation of the viewer to clarify the patient's left from their right. The graphics below show the left foot making contact with the second force plate. Once you confirm that the contact is correct click the Resume Pipeline button on the Pipeline Breakpoint window.

30. You will need to repeat steps 26 through 29 as many times as necessary to see all contacts. If you are using the sample files you will need to repeat 26 through 29 twice.

31. The next Pipeline Breakpoint that you reach will be to check that the report is correct.

32. Navigate through the list of pages (circled in red below) and check that the graphs and values on the right hand of the screen make sense. This is your last chance to make edits to the data. Once the report is generated you will need reprocess from the beginning to make changes to the report.

33. Once you are happy with the report click the Resume Pipeline button on the Pipeline Breakpoint window.

34. You will be presented with a final Pipeline Breakpoint window. Click the Resume Pipeline button on the Pipeline Breakpoint window to exit Visual3D.

35. The report has now been created and you have been returned to the IORgait report page. Select the report that you have created and click the View Report button. This will open the report in OpenOffice.

36. You can now save to your computer or print the report for your records. A copy will remain in the IORgait database until it is explicitly removed.

Troubleshooting

Locating Visual3D.exe on your computer

If you are having trouble locating where Visual3D is installed you will need to follow the following steps.

1. Confirm that your lab has purchased a copy of Visual3D and that it has been installed on the computer that is running IORgait.

2. Open your windows button at the bottom left corner of the screen.

3. Select your hard drive which is typically named the C: drive as it is in this example screen shot.

4. Find the file folder called either Program Files or Program Files(x86) and open it. In the example below the folder is called Program Files.

5. Navigate through the list of programs available on your computer until you find the file that has the newest version of Visual3D, open this folder. In the example below the folder is called Visual3D v5.

6. Within the Visual3D v5 folder is the Visual3D.exe, this is the application that you have been searching for.

7. You now have two options. You may either return to the Preferences window and use the Browse button to navigate to where you have located the Visual3D.exe application or you can click on the navigation bar at the top of the window as shown in the example below. You can copy and paste the file path (in the example the file path is C:\Program Files\Visual3D v5) into the text box beside Visual3D EXE path in the Preferences window.

8. If you have been unable to complete steps 5 through 7 return to the window seen in step four.

9. Type "Visual3D.exe" into the search function at the top right of the window. This will search and find all files and applications that have Visual3D.exe in their name. If you get no search results then Visual3D is likely not installed on your computer and you will need to buy/install Visual3D. Ideally the search will return a small number of results and you can find the file path by looking at the text beneath the icon. In the example the file path for the first search result is C:\Users\c-motion\Desktop\Moulton\Wiki. Please note that if you have multiple Visual3D versions or C-Motion products you may have a very large list of possibilities, and that narrowing it down may be difficult.
