Research of Hip Angle in Hemiplegic Gait / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@# Objective To study the hip angle characteristics in hemiplegic gait.Methods Gait analysis was performed in 20 subjects with hemiplegia and 20 healthy subjects and the hip joint angle of all subjects was analyzed.Results The hip joint angle of affected-side lower limb of hemiplegic gait showed significant differences between 20 subjects with hemiplegia and 20 healthy subjects on hip flextion at heel-contact,maximum extension in stand phase,flextion toe-off,maximum flexion in swing phase and total excursion on sagittal plane.Conclusion The research on the characteristics of hemiplegic gait is helpful to make clinical assessment and treatment planning.
