Impact of balance on functional independence after stroke: A cross-sectional study at rehabilitation settings in Nigeria.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In a patient with severe hemiplegia, the risk of the knee giving way is high during the early stage of gait exercise with an ankle-foot orthosis. However, use of a knee-ankle-foot orthosis has many problems such as large amount of assistance and compensatory motions. To resolve these problems, we have engage...
