Study Summary

This trial will test whether different forms of visual feedback can help people with stroke modify their gait pattern.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 20-80 who have had a stroke or hemiparesis at least 6 months ago. Participants should be able to walk, even if they need a cane or walker, and must manage a 5-minute walk at their own pace. It's not suitable for those with certain neurological conditions other than stroke, severe communication difficulties due to aphasia, uncontrolled heart issues, diabetes, cognitive impairment (MoCA score <23), pregnancy, or walking limitations from orthopedic conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how gait training with visual feedback on leg movements can help people who've had a stroke improve their walking patterns over time. The goal is to see if seeing one's own joint movements while walking helps retrain the brain and muscles to normalize the way participants walk.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves physical therapy techniques rather than medication, side effects may include muscle soreness or fatigue related to exercise. There might also be some frustration or psychological stress associated with learning new movement patterns.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
1. Change in hip and knee joint movements while walking
Secondary outcome measures
1. Change in walking speed
2. Change in subjective assessment of balance confidence

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Single Channel Visual FeedbackExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Gait training with visual feedback of joint kinematics. The visual feedback will contain information about the lower limb joint angles. We will instruct subjects to use the feedback to reach a target walking pattern. In this arm, subjects will receive 1 channel of visual information that encompasses information from 4 lower limb joint angles (right and left hips, right and left knees).
Group II: Multichannel Visual FeedbackExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Gait training with visual feedback of joint kinematics. The visual feedback will contain information about the lower limb joint angles. We will instruct subjects to use the feedback to reach a target walking pattern. In this arm, subjects will receive 4 channels of visual information, each of which represents a joint angle (right and left hips, right and left knees).
