No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the add load on non-paretic lower limb of individuals that suffer a stroke, while walking on a treadmill, is effective for restore gait symmetry of these individuals, in a subacute phase of stroke.

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Gait Disorders, Neurologic

Interventions

OTHER

Treadmill, ankle load

The experimental group will perform gait training on a treadmill (Gait Trainer 2®) with added load to the ankle of the non-paretic lower limb, plus physical therapy correction for restore gait symmetry. The intervention will last 30 minutes, in nine sessions for two weeks

OTHER

Treadmill

The control group (active comparator) will perform gait training on a treadmill (Gait Trainer 2®) with physical therapy correction for restore gait symmetry. The intervention will last 30 minutes, in nine sessions for two weeks
