User experiences, preferences and choices relating to functional electrical stimulation and ankle foot orthoses for foot-drop after stroke (Journal abstract)

Home > Knowledge Base > Adult conditions > Stroke > User experiences, preferences and choices relating to functional electrical stimulation and ankle foot orthoses for foot-drop after stroke (Journal abstract)

This study reports a series of structured interviews with users of the ODFS who had a drop foot due to a CVA.  It compares their preference for using the ODFS or  AFO.  In this qualitative research nearly all participants preferred using the ODFS because better walking was produced, the ankle was freer and FES was more comfortable to use. 

The full article is published in Physiotherapy 2011 Sep;97(3):226-33.
