I am a senior physiotherapist working in the traumatic brain injury (TBI) unit at Epworth Rehabilitation. We have identified and described the nature and extent of walking problems following TBI. Previous researchers focused on the impact of balance disorders on walking. Our research found that balance disorders are prevalent; the main cause of walking problems is muscle weakness. We will compare balance and muscle strengthening exercises to determine which has a greater impact on walking.

我是一名高级物理治疗师，在埃普沃思康复中心的创伤性脑损伤（TBI）部门工作。我们已经确定并描述了TBI后行走问题的性质和程度。以前的研究人员专注于平衡障碍对步行的影响。我们的研究发现，平衡障碍很普遍;行走问题的主要原因是肌肉无力。我们将比较平衡和肌肉强化练习，以确定哪一种对步行的影响更大。
