Body-Weight–Supported Treadmill Rehabilitation after Stroke [PDF]

New England Journal of Medicine, 2011
Locomotor training, including the use of body-weight support in treadmill stepping, is a physical therapy intervention used to improve recovery of the ability to walk after stroke. The effectiveness and appropriate timing of this intervention have not been established.We stratified 408 participants who had had a stroke 2 months earlier according to the
