Interrater and intrarater reliability and minimal detectable change of the Wisconsin Gait Scale when used to examine videotaped gait in individuals post-stroke
Background Often, interventions targeting the kinematic and temporal and spatial changes in gait commonly seen after a stroke are based on observations of walking. Having the capacity to objectively identify such changes and track improvements over time using reliable and valid measures is important. The Wisconsin Gait Scale (WGS), which is comprised of 14 items, was developed specifically to e...
متن کاملGait coordination after stroke: benefits of acoustically paced treadmill walking.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Gait coordination often is compromised after stroke. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of acoustically paced treadmill walking as a method for improving gait coordination in people after stroke. PARTICIPANTS Ten people after stroke volunteered for the study and comprised the experimental group. Nine elderly people who were healthy served as a contro...
متن کاملThe Test-Retest Reliability and Minimal Detectable Change of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the Upper Extremity and 9-Hole Pegboard Test in Individuals With Subacute Stroke
Purpose: The first step to manage motor impairment of upper limb in patients with subacute stroke is having an accurate assessment tool. The Fugl-Meyer assessment of upper extremity and 9-hole pegboard test are used to evaluate motor function and hand dexterity in stroke survivals. The present study aimed to investigate the test-retest reliability and minimal detectable change (MDC) in these tw...
متن کاملGait deviations associated with post-stroke hemiparesis: improvement during treadmill walking using weight support, speed, support stiffness, and handrail hold.
By comparing treadmill walking in hemiparetic and non-disabled individuals at matched speeds, Chen et al. [Chen G, Patten C, Kothari DH, Zajac FE. Gait differences between individuals with post-stroke hemiparesis and non-disabled controls at matched speeds. Gait Posture (2004)] identified gait deviations that were consistent with impaired swing initiation and single limb support in the paretic ...
متن کاملA more symmetrical gait after split-belt treadmill walking increases the effort in paretic plantar flexors in people post-stroke.
OBJECTIVE To determine if the level of effort in paretic plantar flexors during gait could be a factor in explaining locomotor asymmetry. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS Twenty individuals with chronic stroke (mean age 49.4 years (standard deviation 13.2). METHODS Participants walked on a split-belt treadmill for 3 periods: baseline at self-selected speed; adaptation with the belt ...
