Effects of treadmill training with load addition on non-paretic lower limb on gait parameters after stroke: a randomized controlled clinical trial

Highlights • Load use as a restraint for the movement of non-paretic lower limb is proposed. • Currently, only immediate effects of this practice are available. • Stroke patients performed gait training with and without load addition, for two weeks. • Kinematic gait parameters were improved after tr...

Summary:Highlights • Load use as a restraint for the movement of non-paretic lower limb is proposed. • Currently, only immediate effects of this practice are available. • Stroke patients performed gait training with and without load addition, for two weeks. • Kinematic gait parameters were improved after training and maintained at follow-up. • Load addition did not provide additional benefits to gait training.
