Brief summary (registry, in English)
Walking disorder is the most common and concerning issue for individuals with stroke. Previous studies have often used improvements in walking speed and distance as reference indicators for the advancement of gait performance in individuals with stroke. However, for individuals with chronic stroke, considering gait symmetry and variability to enhance gait quality as the primary intervention target may be more crucial. According to a literature review, it can be inferred that the application of biofeedback to detect gait quality may be an effective approach to improve gait symmetry and variability in individuals with stroke. However, there is still insufficient research evidence on this issue. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of a kinematic biofeedback device system, which detects hip joint angles, on gait quality in individuals with chronic stroke.
