Short Effects of a Rehabilitation Session on Gait in Patients With CNS

Completed

• Conditions: Fatigue; Spastic Gait; Fall Due to Failure of Support
• Interventions: Procedure: Intensive lower limbs muscles strengthening

• Registration Number: NCT01807247
• Lead Sponsor: Centre d'Investigation Clinique et Technologique 805

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the short effects of a two rehabilitation session commonly performed in physical therapy,

1. muscle strengthening of the lower limbs and

2. effort reconditioning with cyclo ergometer, on gait characteristics (kinematics, kinetics and electromyographic) in patients with central nervous system lesion.
