Machine learning analysis to predict the need for ankle foot orthosis in patients with stroke

Abstract We investigated the potential of machine learning techniques, at an early stage after stroke, to predict the need for ankle–foot orthosis (AFO) in stroke patients. We retrospectively recruited 474 consecutive stroke patients. The need for AFO during ambulation (output variable) was classifi...

The following demographic and clinical data collected when patients were transferred to the rehabilitation unit (16.20 ± 6.02 days) and 6 months after stroke onset were used as input data: age, sex, type of stroke (ischemic/hemorrhagic), motor evoked potential data on the tibialis anterior muscle of the affected side, modified Brunnstrom classification, functional ambulation category, MRC score for muscle strength for shoulder abduction, elbow flexion, finger flexion, finger extension, hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle dorsiflexion of the affected side.
