The long-term study goal is to develop a more engaging, motivating gait biofeedback methodologies specifically designed for post-stroke gait training. The current project aims to address fundamental questions regarding the optimal methodology to deliver AGRF biofeedback during gait, and the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of AGRF progression protocols for improved gait patterns and gait function. The study objectives are to (1) evaluate the immediate effects of biofeedback training methodology on gait biomechanics; and (2) evaluate the feasibility and short-term effects on gait performance of a real-time biofeedback protocol incorporating progression criteria (similar to those employed during clinical rehabilitative training).

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | paretic pushoff (AGRF) | peak GRF generated by the leg affected by the stroke | Immediately after the 6-minute biofeedback training bout (Post-0 minutes) | |
Secondary | non-paretic peak AGRF | peak GRF generated by the leg not affected by the stroke | Immediately after the 6-minute biofeedback training bout (Post-0 minutes) | |
Secondary | paretic trailing limb angle | angle measuring limb orientation with respect to vertical at terminal stance | Immediately after the 6-minute biofeedback training bout (Post-0 minutes) |
