Gait Training in Post-Stroke Hemiparesis Hemiparesis

Gait Training to Reduce Compensatory Walking Patterns in Post-Stroke Hemiparesis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The focus of this study is to optimize the delivery of a combined strength and aerobic training regimen to individuals with post stroke hemiparesis and reduce overuse and inefficiencies associated with the nonparetic leg during walking. This study proposes to use 1) split-belt treadmill and 2) single belt treadmill walking using split belt simulation software for enhancing symmetrical walking patterns for people with stroke.
