Proprioception on Balance and Gait in Hemiparetics

February 20, 2025 updated by: Seref Duhan Altug, Istanbul Aydın University

Investigation of The Effect of Proprioception on Balance and Gait Functions in Hemiparetic Individuals

The loss of sensorial feedback causes gait impairment in hemiparesis. The studies show that proprioceptive impairment of knee is related to falling in these patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of proprioception on balance and gait functions in hemiparetic individuals.
