The impact of proprioception impairment on gait function in stroke survivors: a comprehensive review by Maciej Kochman, Marta Kasprzak, Aleksandra Kielar

“…In this narrative review, we discussed and summarized the current knowledge about the abnormal post-stroke gait pattern, the role of proprioception in motor control, methods of proprioception assessment, and the association between abnormal gait and proprioception deficit in stroke survivors. The present findings must be interpreted with some caution as current evidence is limited, as well as the correlation does not imply causation and might be underestimated by attributes of current tests for proprioception and motor function. …”
