Objective: To determine whether a gait-training (GT) machine influenced walking time duration and oxygen consumption in hemiplegic patients.Design: Repeated measures with comparison of 2 groups.Setting: Physiology laboratories in a rehabilitation hospital.Participants: Seven patients with stroke-related hemiplegia (2 men, 5 women; age, 46 +/- 1 1y; time since stroke, 12 +/- 9wk) and 7 healthy subjects (3 men, 4 women; age, 30 +/- 7y).Interventions: Floor walking (FW) and GT-assisted walking with and without 50% body-weight support (BWS).Main Outcome Measures: Walking time duration, oxygen consumption (Vo(2)), minute ventilation (VE), and heart rate.Results: When the condition effect was analyzed independently from the group, mean Vo(2) was higher during FW than during the GT tests (post hoc analysis: FW vs GT, P=.017; FW vs GT+BWS, P
