Characterizing physical activity bouts in people with stroke with different ambulation statuses
CA people post stroke exhibited patterns similar to healthy controls in physical activity bouts, whereas LCA primarily engaged in short bouts and light activity. In the context of secondary stroke prevention, encouraging LCA people post stroke to engage in frequent short bouts of moderate to vigorous physical activity or longer bouts of light physical activity might be realistic targets to improve cardiovascular health.
