Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study investigated the change of foot rotation angle of gait analysis parameters according to gait improvement in post-stroke hemiplegic patients.
Methods: We measured the foot rotation angle of eight post-stroke hemiplegic patients at the time of dependent and independent gait.
Results: The foot rotation angle of the paralyzed side reduced closer to normal average according to gait improvement, but the non-paralyzed side not significantly.
Conclusions: Improvement of foot rotation is an important thing for independent gait of post-stroke hemiplegic patients so this treatment seems worthy of being considered in clinical trials.
