Self-paced versus fixed speed treadmill walking.
Instrumented treadmills are increasingly used in gait research, although the imposed walking speed is suggested to affect gait performance. A feedback-controlled treadmill that allows subjects to walk at their preferred speed, i.e. functioning in a self-paced (SP) mode, might be an attractive alternative, but could disturb gait through accelerations of the belt. We compared SP with fixed speed ...
متن کاملGait coordination after stroke: benefits of acoustically paced treadmill walking.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Gait coordination often is compromised after stroke. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of acoustically paced treadmill walking as a method for improving gait coordination in people after stroke. PARTICIPANTS Ten people after stroke volunteered for the study and comprised the experimental group. Nine elderly people who were healthy served as a contro...
متن کاملRhythm perturbations in acoustically paced treadmill walking after stroke.
BACKGROUND In rehabilitation, acoustic rhythms are often used to improve gait after stroke. Acoustic cueing may enhance gait coordination by creating a stable coupling between heel strikes and metronome beats and provide a means to train the adaptability of gait coordination to environmental changes, as required in everyday life ambulation. OBJECTIVE To examine the stability and adaptability ...
متن کاملPsychophysiological responses to self-paced treadmill and overground exercise.
UNLABELLED Speculation exists that a positive affective response experienced during exercise may play an important role in predicting exercise adherence. Previous studies using self-paced exercise protocols have been associated with health benefits and pleasant experiences. However, all of these studies were conducted in laboratories, and consequently, the external validity of the findings may ...
متن کاملIntra-rater repeatability of gait parameters in healthy adults during self-paced treadmill-based virtual reality walking.
Self-paced treadmill walking is becoming increasingly popular for the gait assessment and re-education, in both research and clinical settings. Its day-to-day repeatability is yet to be established. This study scrutinised the test-retest repeatability of key gait parameters, obtained from the Gait Real-time Analysis Interactive Lab (GRAIL) system. Twenty-three male able-bodied adults (age: 34.5...
