Abstract:BackgroundStroke often leads to chronic, neural-derived motor impairments in the paretic lower limb, such as weakness, abnormal extensor torque coupling, and reduced ranges of motion. These impairments can constrain lower extremity movement and negatively impact the ability to navigate uneven terrain. Quantification of biomechanical strategies used by individuals with chronic stroke to step up would offer insight into the neural consequences of a stroke.Research QuestionWhat are the altered kinetic and kinemat… Show more
