Summary

Individuals with stroke have balance and gait deficits. Gait training does improve balance and gait abilities, but adding perturbations may have increase these effects. The objective was to compare the effect gait training with and without perturbations on balance and gait abilities in individuals with hemiparesis due to stroke at a chronic stage.

Conditions

  • Hemiparesis;Poststroke/CVA

Interventions

DEVICE

Gait training with perturbations

Changes in speed of one of the belt of the split belt treadmill during swing phase

DEVICE

Gait training without perturbation

Walking on a treadmill with steady belt speed
