Summary
The aim of this systematic review was to determine the number of muscle synergies and the distribution of muscle weightings in stroke patients during gait.
Detailed description
The aim of this systematic review was to determine the number of muscle synergies and the distribution of muscle weightings in stroke patients during gait. Although literature has suggested that merging of synergies occurs after stroke and that a larger number of is associated with increased motor function if compared with healthy adults. IIt is still unknown if this hypothesis is also relevant when comparing different functional levels within a stroke population and what functional impact of altered synergies on walking behavior is.
