Does severity of motor impairment affect reactive adaptation and fall-risk in chronic stroke survivors?

Does severity of motor impairment affect reactive adaptation and fall-risk in chronic stroke survivors?

Abstract Background A single-session of slip-perturbation training has shown to induce long-term fall risk reduction in older adults. Considering the spectrum of motor impairments and deficits in reactive balance after a cortical stroke, we aimed to determine if chronic stroke survivors could acquir...
