Presented at the
International Society of Posture and Gait Research Congress, Bologna, Italy (June 21-25, 2009).
During curved walking, muscle activity and foot pressure distribution must be adapted according to path curvature in order to accommodate to the specific demands of turning.
The purpose of this study was to assess whether stroke participants would adapt to the task of turning by modulating muscle activity and foot pressure distribution with changes to path curvature as seen in able-bodied individuals.
