The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lateralization on the spatio-temporal characteristics of gait in individuals with hemiparesis.
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.

assessment of gait between in right and left hemiparetics
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.
Time frame: Measurement time is 10 minutes. Only one measurement was made.
