This study looks at ways to help people walk better after a stroke. A stroke is when blood doesn't reach part of the brain, causing problems with moving and walking. This study compares two methods: fast treadmill walking (Fast) and fast walking with functional electrical stimulation (FastFES). Functional electrical stimulation (FES) uses small electrical pulses to help muscles move. The study wants to see who benefits most from these treatments, aiming to improve walking quality and function.
Participants will attend 12 training sessions, with evaluations at the start, during, and after training. The study involves checking how the body moves, energy use, and brain signals.
- Study lasts approximately 6 weeks with multiple sessions and follow-ups.
- Participants must have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and be able to walk 10 meters.
- People with certain health conditions, like other neurological issues, or metal implants in the head, cannot join.
