Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lateralization on the spatio-temporal characteristics of gait in individuals with hemiparesis.
Detailed Description
A total of 108 individuals within the age range of 20-65 and 36 of whom are right hemiparetic (Group1; 16F, 20M), 36 of whom are left hemiparetic (Group2; 16F, 20M) and 36 of whom are healthy (Group3; 19F, 17M) have been included in the study. BTS G-Walk Gait Analysis System has been used to assess the spatio-temporal gait characteristics.

Arms & Interventions
Right hemiparetics
right-sided affected hemiparetic individuals
Intervention: assessment of gait parameters (Other)
Left hemiparetics
left-sided affected hemiparetic individuals
Intervention: assessment of gait parameters (Other)
Control
healthy individuals
Intervention: assessment of gait parameters (Other)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
assessment of gait between in right and left hemiparetics
Time Frame: Measurement time is 10 minutes. Only one measurement was made.
A port was attached to the patient's L5-S1 level. In the gait analysis system, the results was transferred to the computer via bluetooth with the analysis port. The resulting report was generated automatically. The report measured gait speed, cadence, right and left step length, right and left stride length, double and single stride length, pelvic rotation, pelvic tilt, and pelvic oblique.
Secondary Outcomes
- assessment of gait between in hemiparetic and healthy individuals(Measurement time is 10 minutes. Only one measurement was made.)
