Abstract des Autors
The energy cost of level walking (Cw) was measured from the ratio of O2 consumption to speed (from 0.1 to 1.2 m/s) in hemiplegic patients (n=20) and in a control group of healthy subjects (n = 17). Average age and body mass were 58, 54 years and 73, 78 kg, respectively. In hemiplegic patients Cw was higher than in control subjects (average value at 1.0 m/s = 3.6 and 3.3 J/m/kg, respectively) and this difference increased at lower speeds (from 5.1% at 1.2 m/s to 28.7% at 0.1 m/s).
