1. One or more computer-storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method for diagnosing a specific dysfunction associated with comparison results for one or more biokinetographic values for one or more specific components of a gait cycle, the method comprising:
- obtaining biokinetographic data for a unique patient;
identifying in said biokinetographic data biokinetographic values for specific components of a gait cycle of the unique patient, wherein the specific components of the gait cycle are initiation of gait movement, base of gait, cadence, gait turnaround and arm swing during gait movement;
comparing each of the biokinetographic values for all of initiation of gait movement, base of gait, cadence, gait turnaround, and arm swing movement to a corresponding standard for each of the biokinetographic values;
utilizing the comparison results for each of the biokinetographic values for all of initiation of gait movement, base of gait, cadence, gait turnaround, and arm swing movement to determine a specific dysfunction associated with the biokinetographic values;
determining each biokinetographic value automatically from a biokinetographic data set comprising a plurality of scalar sums of acceleration values in each of three orthogonal directions, each scalar sum corresponding to a particular point in time; and
identifying a cause of the unique patient'"'"'s condition as a specific dysfunction that is associated with the comparison results for each of the biokinetographic values for the specific components of the gait cycle of the unique patient where the specific components of the gait cycle are each of initiation of gait movement, base of gait, cadence, gait turnaround, and arm swing during gait movement.
