Study Summary

The study is a prospective interventional study to assess the changes in corticospinal excitability and spinal reflex excitability of in response to rehabilitative strategies and protocols that are commonly used during physical therapy treatment of gait disorders among post-stroke subjects. As part of this protocol, 55 individuals with chronic stroke will be assigned to either Cohort 1 or Cohort 2, and will participate in 1-18 gait training sessions. If interested, study participants can also complete both study cohorts sequentially (with at least 3-weeks duration between switching from one cohort to the second). The study examines the effects among two cohorts of post stroke patients. Cohort 1 will participate in 18 sessions of fast treadmill walking plus Functional Electrical Stimulation (FastFES) and Cohort 2 will participate in 1-3 sessions of FastFES and fast walking without FES.

Primary Outcome

Change from baseline in MEP amplitude (transverse abdominal (TA) muscle) is used as a measure of corticospinal excitability that is assessed using a non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Electrical activity from muscles in response to the TMS will be collected using surface electromyography (EMG) sensors attached to muscles that play critical roles during FastFES versus Fast walking. TMS will be delivered using two Magstim 200 stimulators connected via a BiStim m
