The effects of orthotics on the sensori-motor problems of the foot and ankle after stroke (2011)
Thesis
Sadeghi Demneh, E. The effects of orthotics on the sensori-motor problems of the foot and ankle after stroke. (Thesis). University of Salford

The foot and ankle forms the interface between the body and ground hence stroke related changes impact on mobility but there is little research has considered the foot and ankle post-stroke. This thesis bridges these knowledge gaps to enable clinical... Read More about The effects of orthotics on the sensori-motor problems of the foot and ankle after stroke.

The biomechanics of foot and ankle problems after stroke and the effects of orthotics on such problems (2009)
Thesis
Forghany, S. The biomechanics of foot and ankle problems after stroke and the effects of orthotics on such problems. (Thesis). University of Salford

Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability and -50% of people with stroke suffer foot deformities which influence walking. The aim of this study was to investigate foot and ankle biomechanics, posture, multi-segment kinematics and plantar press...
