Gait Parameter In Hemiparetics

Details and patient eligibility

About

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lateralization on the spatio-temporal characteristics of gait in individuals with hemiparesis.

Full description

A total of 108 individuals within the age range of 20-65 and 36 of whom are right hemiparetic (Group1; 16F, 20M), 36 of whom are left hemiparetic (Group2; 16F, 20M) and 36 of whom are healthy (Group3; 19F, 17M) have been included in the study. BTS G-Walk Gait Analysis System has been used to assess the spatio-temporal gait characteristics.

Enrollment: 108 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 20 to 65 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
