Summary

Our proposal quantitatively analyzes gait dynamics of hemiplegic individuals in response to the Function Electrical Stimulation (FES) intervention and identifies the responders to the intervention. This study will improve our knowledge of FES intervention and help clinicians strategize the FES interventions more effectively based on the responders' gait characteristics, thus supporting the NINDS' fundamental goal of translating basic and clinical discoveries into better ways to prevent and treat neurological disorders.

DEVICE

FES

In phase 1, five subjects (randomly chosen) will be provided the FES device and instructed to use it for ambulation for the 6 months. At the baseline visit, gait data will be collected from this group. On the 6 month follow up visit, same data collection procedure will be performed and the devices will be collected back from the subjects. After performing quality check on these devices, phase 2 of the data collection will start by providing the devices to the other five subjects and their baseline data will be collected.
