摘要: Abstract Gait training is a major focus of rehabilitation for many people with neurological disorders, yet systematic reviews have failed to identify the most effective form gait training. The main objective this study was compare conditions acquired brain injury (ABI). Seventeen who had sustained an ABI and were unable walk without assistance recruited as sample. Each participant exposed seven alternative in randomized order. These were: (1) therapist manual facilitation; (2) use gait-assistive device; (3) unsupported treadmill walking; (4) four variations body weight support (BWSTT). Quantitative analysis performed Profile Scores (GPS) generated each determine which condition closely resembled normal walking. BWSTT additional or self-support upper limbs associated more severe abnormality [Wil...
