The influence of ankle-foot orthosis stiffness on gait performance in patients with lower limb neuromuscular and musculoskeletal impairments
Individuals with various lower-limb neuromuscular and musculoskeletal impairments are often prescribed passive-dynamic ankle-foot orthoses (PD-AFOs) to compensate for impaired ankle muscle weakness. Several studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of PD-AFOs on pathological gait, but few st...
