What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
10-meter walk test (in seconds)
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Maximum gait velocity, from a standing start
comparison between baseline and 15 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessment of gait temporospatial parameters by GaitRite®
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Specific temporal and spatial parameters of gait will be measured with the GaitRite gait evaluation system: gait cadence, hemiparetic step length, spatial asymmetry, swing and stance times.
comparison between baseline and 15 days
Posturographic analysis during static upright stance (center of pressure surface)
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Assessment of displacements of the center of pressure during quiet upright standing for 30s, using a Zebris platform
comparison between baseline and 15 days
Baropodometric analysis during gait
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Assessment of the paretic footprint during gait, using the Zebris platform
comparison between baseline and 15 days
Gait endurance (2-minute walk test)
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Assessment of maximum gait perimeter during a 2mwt
comparison between baseline and 15 days
Assessment of walking function
Time Frame: comparison between baseline and 15 days
Lower Limb Function assessment scale (LL-FAS, Allart et al. 2015) functional subscores
comparison between baseline and 15 days
Tolerability of the wearing of the Caligaloc orthosis assessed by visual analog scale
Time Frame: at 15 days
visual analog scale (0=major discomfort - 10=excellent comfort)
at 15 days
