A major component of stroke rehabilitation focuses on gait restoration. The purpose of this review is to examine the efficacy of a variety of gait retraining techniques currently in clinical use, including strength training, functional electrical stimulation, treadmill training, partial body-weight support, EMG biofeedback, and splinting of the lower extremity. Forty-eight studies evaluating si...
Background An Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) is commonly used in clinical practice to assist gait of patients with different pathologies. The flexibility of the AFO depends on different design characteristics while specific mechanical requirements of the AFO are correlated with patient anatomy and pathology. To this day, the correlation between AFO-design and patient pathology is mainly based on the...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the restoration of FES gait using a new medially linked knee ankle foot orthosis (Primewalk) in a paraplegic patient. The walking speeds, the step cadence and the step length at the Primewalk/FES gait were measured and compared with those at the Walkabout/FES gait. All parameters were significantly greater at the Primewalk/FES gait (p < 0.05). The slidi...
Stroke affects 700,000 Americans per year resulting in the largest cause of long-term disability in the United States. Dropfoot is a common condition associated with residual disabilities of stokes and is characterized as a paralysis or weakness of the dorsiflexor muscles of the foot and ankle. The result is an abnormal gait cycle caused by the dragging of the foot and toes during the swing pha...
Mechanical testing and gait measurement for ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) are crucial determining the AFO stiffness magnitude in an individual. However, information on effect of muscle force during is limited. This study aimed to investigate relationship between ankle gait. The was mechanically tested using a six-axis robot arm. adjusted different spring constants. Five conditions were set each pla...
