Effect of ankle-foot orthosis on paretic gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior muscles contraction of stroke survivors during walking: a pilot study

2024-05-02

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) is commonly prescribed for stroke survivors with foot drop to aid in foot clearance while walking and reduce fall risk.
