4-point vs 4-roll Canne as Walking Aids After Stroke

NCT02279069 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 32

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Stroke patients frequently necessitate walking aids such as 4-point canne. However, the 4-point canne has to be lifted by the patient which limited gait speed. The adjunction of small wheel below the 4 point of the canne (4-roll) gives the possibility to the patient to walk without having to lift the canne as it will roll over the ground.

The aim of our study is to compare gait parameters (gait speed and energy cost) with a classical 4-point canne and with 4-roll canne.
