High-intensity locomotor training during inpatient rehabilitation improves the discharge ambulation function of patients with stroke. A systematic review with meta-analysis

CONCLUSIONS: The meta-analysis supports the use of high-intensity locomotor training over usual care for improving gait speed and gait endurance during inpatient post-stroke. Future studies should investigate dose-response relationships of high-intensity locomotor training in this setting.PROSPERO REGISTRATION: #CRD42022341329.PMID:38285888 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2304960
