A Novel, Comprehensive Approach to Post-stroke Gait Rehabilitation

Participants will be provided with visual feedback of their right and left step lengths on a screen in front of a treadmill.

Participants will be provided with real-time visual feedback of anterior-posterior ground reaction forces of the paretic limb during stance phase on a screen in front of a treadmill.

Participants will be provided with visual feedback of stride-by-stride values of their interlimb asymmetry on a screen in front of a treadmill.

Participants will walk at three different aerobic intensities. Aerobic intensity will be set based on target heart rate zones calculated with the Karvonen Formula. For low intensity, participants will walk at 30-40% intensity. In moderate intensity conditions, participants will walk at a 50-60% intensity level. In vigorous intensity conditions, participants will walk at an 70-80% intensity level. Aerobic intensity will be manipulated by changing walking speed.
