Abstract
The effect of noninvasive trasnscutaneous spinal cord stimulation (scTS) on walking parameters in patients after a cerebral infarction or ischemic stroke was investigated. It has been shown that after the use of scTS while walking on the floor the speed of movement, the length of the step cycle, the height of the foot elevation and the amplitude of movements in the hip, knee and ankle joints increased, which shows the ability of using scT to correct walking after a stroke.
Key words: spinal cord, electrical stimulation, stroke, walking.
