How accuracy of foot-placement is affected by the size of the base of support and crutch support in stroke survivors and healthy adults (2019)
Journal Article
van der Veen, S., Hammerbeck, U., & Hollands, K. (2020). How accuracy of foot-placement is affected by the size of the base of support and crutch support in stroke survivors and healthy adults. Gait & Posture, 76, 224-230. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2019.12.007

Background The high prevalence of falls due to trips and slips following stroke may signify difficulty controlling balance and adjusting foot-placement in response to the environment. We know very little about how controlling foot-placement is affec...
