Belçika Malinois Köpeklerinde Yürüme Analizi Sistemleri Kullanılarak Basınç Merkezi (COP) Analizi: Pilot Çalışma

Çalışmanın amacı, Belçika Malinois köpeklerinde kelebek diyagramı kullanarak yürüyüş ile ilgili parametreleri elde etmektir. Klinik olarak sağlıklı Belçika Malinois köpeklerinde, basınca duyarla yürüme plağı kullanılarak basınç merkezi analizi (COP) yapılmıştır. Her bir köpek platformda ortalama 30 adım yürütüldü. Yürüyüş analizleri tasma kullanılmadan yapıldı. Yürüyüş sırasında basınç merkezi tarafından oluşturulan kelebek diyagramı her köpek için ayrı ayrı elde edildi. Önden arkaya poziyon değişimi, yanal simetri farkı, adım sırasında merkezi basınç değişimi ve merkezi basınç değişim çizgisinin uzunluğunun tamamı gibi veriler kelebek diyagram yöntemi kullanılarak milimetre cinsinden kaydedildi. Ortalama önden arkaya poziyon değişim değeri 60,01 mm olarak ve ortalama yanal simetri farkının değeri ise 17,48 mm olarak kaydedildi. Merkezi basınç değişim çizgisi ortalama 52,23 mm olarak hesaplandı. Bu çalışmada basınca duyarlı yürüme plağını köpeklerde kullanarak, basınç merkezi değerlerinin referans verileri belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Aynı cins köpeklerden yararlanan bu çalışmada köpekler için kelebek diyagramı sonuçlarının elde edilebilmesi ve değerlerin benzer olması, basınç merkezi analizlerinin (COP) köpeklerde de kullanılabileceğini düşündürmektedir. Bu sistemlerin veteriner alanlarından anatomi, ortopedi ve nöroloji gibi bölümlerde önemli bir rol oynayacağı ve bu çalışmaların sayısının artacağı düşünülmektedir.

Center of Pressures (COP) Analysis Using Gait Analysis Systems in Belgian Malinois Dogs: A Pilot Study

The aim of the study was to determine parameters related to the gait butterfly diagram in Belgian Malinois dogs. The center of pressure (COP) analysis was performed on clinically healthy Belgian Malinois dogs using pressure-sensing walkway. An average of 30 steps were taken by each dog. Gait analyses were carried out without using leash. The butterfly diagram created by pressure center during gait was obtained separately for each dog. Data such as anterior-posterior position, lateral symmetry, length gait ve Max gait line were recorded in mm using the butterfly diagrams. The average anterior-posterior position value was 60,01 mm and the average lateral symmetry value was 17,48 mm. The Max gait line average was calculated to be 52.23 mm. The objective of this study was to identify reference values for center of pressure analysis conducted on dogs using pressure-sensing walkway. The fact that it was possible to collect butterfly diagram results for dogs and that the values were similar within this study that made use of dogs of the same breed suggest that COP analyses can also be applied to dogs. It is thought that such systems will play an important role in fields of veterinary anatomy, orthopedics and neurology and the number of such studies will increase.
