Center-of-Mass Work Organization Supplements Walking Speed: a Biomechanical Characterization of Hemiparetic Gait
2026-03-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and Purpose</h4> Walking speed is the dominant clinical metric used to classify post-stroke hemiparetic gait severity. However, speed does not describe how mechanical energy is generated and redistributed. We tested whether whole-body center-of-mass (COM) work patterns provide a biomechanically grounded supplement to speed-based severity classification. <h4>Methods</h4> Limb-specific COM power and...
