Gait Control of Stroke Patients Using Visual Feedback

October 23, 2016 updated by: Joon-Ho Shin, National Rehabilitation Center, Seoul, Korea
The purpose of this study is to determine the possibility of gait pattern change via visual feedback among patients with stroke. Also, the optimal visual feedback would be chosen from this study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Step length symmetry
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for the duration of treadmill gait, an expected average of 15 minutes

Step length symmetry during treadmill gait. When the participants walk on the treadmill, the walk symmetry was calculated from the sensor attached to them.

During the whole period of treadmill gait, step length asymmetry will be recorded.

Participants will be followed for the duration of treadmill gait, an expected average of 15 minutes
