Biomechanical analysis of gait initiation in stroke survivors based on a modified phase segmentation method
Refined phase segmentation provided additional insight: impaired anticipatory postural adjustment capacity during gait initiation after stroke was reflected by prolonged P2 and reduced COP displacement in P1. Biomechanical parameters of gait initiation may serve as objective indicators of motor function and inform rehabilitation strategies in stroke patients.
