Summary

Stroke survivors may have a latent, propulsive capacity of the paretic leg, that can be elicited during short, intensive gait training interventions. The aim of this study was therefor to investigate the effect of a five-week gait training on paretic propulsion, propulsion symmetry, gait capacity, and daily-life mobility and physical activity in chronic stroke survivors.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Gait training

Participants receive five weeks individual robotic gait training in LOPES II, targeting paretic propulsion (60 minutes, two time a week). The robotic gait training is complemented with daily home exercises (15 minutes/day) focusing on increasing strength and practice of learned strategies in daily life.
