A New Approach to Retrain Gait in Stroke Patients Through Body Weight Support and Treadmill Stimulation
Description:
Background and Purpose—A new gait training strategy for patients with stroke proposes to support a percentage of the patient's body weight while retraining gait on a treadmill. This research project intended to compare the effects of gait training with body weight support (BWS) and with no body weight support (no-BWS) on clinical outcome measures for patients with stroke.
