Relearning functional and symmetric walking after stroke using a wearable device: a feasibility study

Abstract Background Gait impairment is a common consequence of stroke and typically involves a hemiparetic or asymmetric walking pattern. Asymmetric gait patterns are correlated with decreased gait velocity and efficiency as well as increased susceptibility to serious falls and injuries. Research Qu...
