Abstract	We studied the validity and the reliablity, as well as the indicatians and limitations of Benesh Movement Notation gait assessment with adult hemiplegic patients. We described the use of BMN for analysis of the walking of 20 adult hemiplegic patients, eLnd analyzed the number of BMN deviational signs which we divided into five classifications of walking factors, in addition to factor for limb and trunk. It was thereby found that: 1. The twenty subjects represented 366 deviational signs that we summarize the performance in terms of standing posture and walking. The Brunnstrom recovery stage (BS) was low with higher numbers of deviational signs, although a significant difference was not observed. 2. For walking factors, the numbers of deviational signs with position/angle factors were significantly higher than many the numbers of deviational signs associated with the other four factor classifications. 3. For walking factors, the numbers of deviation signs increased with low BS, and significant differences were idetified the position/angle and orthosis factor classificatione. The BMN methods consist mainly of the evaluation of gait deviations from visual assessment of position/angle factors and limb and trunk variables. Our results indicate that the BMN method can be used reliably. It should be possible to develop BMN systems with higher reliability levels so that observational gait assessments can be generally recognized as an objective clinical gait evaluation tool. Bull.
