Abstract

|
|
Objectives: The goal of this study was to observe the gait patterns from a patient with Parkinson disease under three different walking speeds.
Methods: The patient walked on a treadmill and we measured gait parameters using a treadmill gait analysis system for 2 minutes. The Parkinson patients walked under three different conditions, fi rst, at the preferred walking speed, second, at slower speed than the preferred walking speed, and, third, at faster speed than the preferred walking speed.
Results: In terms of temporal gait parameters, as speed of treadmill increased, stance phase and total double support decreased, and swing phase increased. In terms of spatial parameters, as speed of treadmill increased, step and stride length increased. In terms of kinetic parameters, max pressure increased as speed of treadmill increased.
Conclusion: According to different walking speeds, some gait parameters of spatiotemporal and kinetic was changed.
