Purpose: This study was performed to determine the difference or temporal-spatial gait asymmetry ratio according to static pelvic inclination level in hemiplegic patients.
Methods: The subjects were 25 hemiplegic patients who was experienced stroke on MCA territory. Gait parameters and static pelvic inclination were recorded by $GAITRite^{(R)}$ system and radiologic PACS. The subjects were divided into three group according to static pelvic inclination. In the group I, the subjects have static pelvic inclination below $58^{\circ}$. The group II has $58^{\circ}{\sim}62^{\circ}$ or static pelvic inclination and the group m has over $62^{\circ}$ or static pelvic inclination. The data or three groups were analysed with ANOVA.
Results: In comparison or single support time asymmetry ratio among 3 groups, the score or group II was significantly higher than the other groups(p<0.05). But the swing time asymmetry ratio was not significant(p>0.05).
Conclusion: Asymmetry ratio of single support time was statistically significant by static pelvic inclination level. But asymmetry ratio or group II was the highest among three groups. It means that the patients or normal range of pelvic inclination was showed the most asymmetry or gait. And swing time asymmetry ratio was not significant among three groups. Even if the patient has normal ranged static pelvic inclination, it doesn’t suggest that the patient has low gait asymmetry.
