Study Summary

Hypothesis/Specific Aims: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of training with the Stride Management Assist (SMA) device vs. Impairment based physical therapy (IPT) on descending corticospinal drive to the lower limb muscles in patients post stroke. The investigators hypothesize that long-term SMA use would strengthen the connections between the motor areas of the brain and the lower limbs. Specifically, individuals in the SMA group will show higher corticospinal excitability of the lower limb muscles compared to those in the IPT group.

Primary Outcome

Measure of self selected and fast walking speeds by measuring the time it takes an individual to walk 10 meters. The test is performed using a "flying start," patient walks 10 meters (33 ft) and the time is measured when the leading foot crosses the start line and the finish line. The instructions are: "Please walk this distance at your normal pace when I say go." and repeated "Please walk this distance as fast as you can safely when I say go."

Interventions

  • DEVICE The Stride Management Assist (SMA) System
  • OTHER Impairment based therapy
