Reduced gait stability in high-functioning poststroke individuals.
Falls during walking are a major cause of poststroke injury, and walking faster may decrease the ability to recover following a gait perturbation. We compared gait stability between high-functioning poststroke individuals and controls and evaluated the effect of gait speed on gait stability. Ten stroke subjects and ten age-matched controls walked on a self-paced treadmill at two speeds (matched...
متن کاملPropulsive adaptation to changing gait speed.
Understanding propulsion and adaptation to speed requirements is important in determining appropriate therapies for gait disorders. We hypothesize that adaptations for changing speed requirements occur primarily at the hip. The slow, normal and fast gait of 24 healthy young subjects was analyzed. The linear power was analyzed at the hip joint. The anterior-posterior and vertical induced acceler...
متن کاملGait dynamics following variable and constant speed gait training in individuals with chronic stroke.
Variable practice may be beneficial for learning novel motor patterns. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a variable practice intervention during treadmill walking on the dynamic properties of gait. Using a counterbalanced design, 16 subjects with hemiparesis following chronic stroke performed 20 min of treadmill walking in constant speed training (CST) and variable speed ...
متن کاملEffects of Backward Gait Training on Ground Reaction Forces in Patients with Medial Knee Osteoarthritis
introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of backward gait training protocol on ground reaction forces in Patients with medial knee Osteoarthritis. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed with a pretest-posttest design in two groups of healthy and unhealthy and the experimental group (participants with medial knee osteoarthritis). The participants were 21 ...
متن کاملMechanisms of the contextual interference effect in individuals poststroke.
Although intermixing different motor learning tasks via random schedules enhances long-term retention compared with "blocked" schedules, the mechanism underlying this contextual interference effect has been unclear. Furthermore, previous studies have reported inconclusive results in individuals poststroke. We instructed participants to learn to produce three grip force patterns in either random...
