Beskrivelse
Inclusion Criteria:
- greater than 3 months post-TBI (as defined by INTRuST criteria) and no longer receiving care as an inpatient in a rehabilitation facility.
- the ability to follow simple three-step commands;
- the ability to communicate presence and location of pain;
- the ability to sit independently without back or arm support for five minutes;
- the ability to stand with support of a straight cane, quad cane, or walker for 2 minutes;
- the ability to walk 10 meters with maximum 1 person assisting;
- presence of motor deficits (determined by clinical assessment of paresis);
- age ≥ 18;
- ability to give consent or have a acceptable surrogate capable of giving consent on subject's behalf
Exclusion Criteria:
- unable to ambulate 500 feet prior to TBI;
- history of serious chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or oxygen dependence;
- severe weight bearing pain;
- lower-extremity amputation;
- non-healing ulcers on the lower-extremity;
- renal dialysis or end stage liver disease;
- legal blindness or severe visual impairment;
- severe arthritis or orthopedic problems that limit passive ranges of motion of lower extremity (knee flexion contracture of -10°, knee flexion Range of Motion < 90°, hip flexion contracture > 25°, and ankle plantar flexion contracture > 15°);
- history of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 6 months
- uncontrollable diabetes with recent weight loss, diabetic coma, or frequent insulin reactions;
- severe hypertension with systolic greater than 200 mmHg and diastolic greater than 110 mmHg at rest;
- intracranial hemorrhage related to aneurysm rupture or an arteriovenous malformation (hemorrhagic infarctions will not be excluded);
- history of severe uncontrolled seizure disorder;
- other neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's Disease;
- pain that is scored greater than 5 out of 10 on a visual analog scale;
- any factor contraindicative to MRI examination (e.g., cardiac pacemaker/ defibrillator, pregnancy, aneurysm clips, insulin pump, metal fragments in the body).
- any other health problems judged by their screening physician to put the client at significant risk of harm during the study

Eksperimentel: Intensive Mobility Training (IMT)
Intensive Mobility Training will be used as an intensive physical therapy intervention.
Participants will receive 3 hours per day for a 10 day session, be post-tested, and receive another 10 day session followed by two more testing sessions.
