Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Alteration to the precautionary pattern of locomotion, based on the laboratory report of three-dimensional gait analysis considering statistically significant changes in spatio-temporal, kinematic and kinetic data. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Neuromotor locomotion pattern generation, observed from the synchronization of the capture of the neural activation with the biomechanical gait data in correlation with the clinical patterns studied. | — |
