Improving walking symmetry after stroke with special devices
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses special devices and feedback to help people who have had a stroke walk more evenly (symmetrically). It tests if these tools can improve walking patterns and balance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have had a stroke at least 1 month ago
- You can walk 10 meters (about 30 feet) with or without a cane or walker

This study tests a treadmill walking program that uses split belts to help improve your walking after a stroke. If you had a stroke less than 9 months ago, this may help you walk better.
This study tests different amounts of walking on a special treadmill that moves each leg at a different speed. It may help people recovering from a first stroke to improve their walking.
This study tests a special balance and walking training program for people who have had a stroke. It aims to help improve balance while walking, which may help you move more safely and independently.
This trial studies a more intensive, early walking exercise program after a stroke. It may help improve walking speed, balance, and the ability to move safely with less support.
This study tests a special walking feedback system (like a video game for your legs) for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It aims to improve walking quality, such as how smoothly and evenly you step.
This study aims to develop a walking exercise program for people who have had a stroke and cannot walk on their own. It will test a treadmill-based program to help improve walking ability.
