Feasibility of Measuring Ventilatory Threshold in Adults with Stroke-Induced Hemiparesis: Implications for Exercise Prescription

Assess the feasibility of measuring ventilatory threshold (VT) in adults with walking impairments due to stroke. Secondary objectives: assess reliability of VT over trials; assess whether participants could sustain treadmill walking at VT; compare mean heart rate (HR) during sustained treadmill walking to estimated heart rate reserve (HRR).
