OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of an anterior ankle-foot orthosis (AAFO) on
walking mobility in stroke patients. SETTING: A university's neurologic rehabilitation
department. PARTICIPANTS: Ambulant stroke patients (N=21). INTERVENTIONS: Not
applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Walking mobility was measured by the Timed Up
and Go (TUG) test and the Timed Up and Down Stairs (TUDS) test. The paired t test
was used to determine the difference between the mobility performances measured
with and without the AAFO. RESULTS: There were significant differences between
mobility performances with and without an AAFO in the TUG test (P=.038) and the
TUDS test (P=.000). CONCLUSIONS: This study supports the effect of an AAFO on
walking mobility in stroke patients. The findings demonstrate that stroke
patients wearing an AAFO may ambulate with greater speed and safety on level
surfaces and stairs.
