Post-stroke Gait Assessments Clinical Trial
Official title:
Supraspinal Contributions to the Control of Human Locomotion: Clinical and Fundamental Aspects
Many neurological patients express enhanced deficits while walking in a dark room (or during
the night): the supraspinal structures involved in this navigational deficit have not been
identified yet. In this project, the investigators will study post-stroke gaits of human
patients and compare them to those of a control population during a goal-oriented task
performed in different visual conditions.
The investigators want to test the hypothesis that during simple goal-oriented locomotor
tasks, only patients with specific (e.g. medio or infero- temporal) lesions will express
navigational deficits.
