Analysis of Gait Characteristics Using Hip-Knee Cyclograms in Patients with Hemiplegic Stroke

Gait disturbance is a common sequela of stroke. Conventional gait analysis has limitations in simultaneously assessing multiple joints. Therefore, we investigated the gait characteristics in stroke patients using hip-knee cyclograms, which have the advantage of simultaneously visualizing the gait ki...
