While limited walking speed characterizes gait in the majority of persons post-stroke, the potential to increase walking speed can also be markedly impaired and has not been thoroughly investigated. We hypothesized that failure to effectively recruit both hip flexor and plantarflexor muscles of the paretic side limits the potential to increase walking speed in lower functioning hemiparetic subjects. To test this hypothesis, we measured gait kinematics and mechanics of twelve persons with post-stroke hemiparesis at self-selected and fast walking conditions. Two groups were identified: 1) lower functioning subjects (n=6) who increased normalized walking speed from 0.52 leg lengths/sec (ll/s, SEM: 0.04) to 0.72 ll/s (SEM: 0.03) and 2) higher functioning subjects (n = 6) who increased walking speed from 0.88 ll/s (SEM:0.04) to 1.4 ll/s (SEM 0.03). Changes in spatiotemporal parameters, joint kinematics and kinetics between self-selected and fast walking were compared to control data collected at matched speeds (0.35 ll/s (SEM: 0.03) - 0.63 ll/s (SEM: 0.03) - 0.92 ll/s (SEM: 0.04) and 1.4 ll/s (SEM: 0.04)). Similar to speed-matched control subjects, the higher functioning hemiparetic subjects increased paretic limb hip flexion power and ankle plantarflexion power to increase walking speed. The lower functioning subjects demonstrated impaired ankle power generation combined with excessive power generation at the paretic hip during pre-swing at their self selected speed. This lower functioning group did not increase power generation at the hip or ankle to increase walking speed. This observation suggests that impaired ankle power generation combined with saturation of hip power generation, limits the potential to increase walking speed in lower functioning hemiparetic subjects.
