Study Summary
This trial is designed to help people with post-stroke hemiparesis by improving the delivery of strength and aerobic training. The study will use different types of treadmills to help reduce inefficiencies and overuse associated with the non-paretic leg.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy individuals and stroke survivors over 20 years old. Healthy participants must walk independently without aids, while those with a history of stroke should be able to walk with or without assistance and have had their first unilateral stroke at least 6 months prior without major complications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two types of treadmill training: split-belt and single belt using simulation software. It aims to improve walking symmetry in people who have experienced a stroke by combining strength and aerobic exercises.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include muscle soreness, fatigue, joint pain, or discomfort from the exercise regimen. There might also be an increased risk of falls during the training sessions.
