Abstract

In 30 hemiplegic patients, gait speed at a pedestrian crossing and that for 10-m indoors were measured in order to confirm whether gait speed indoors was also displayed outdoors.<br>The results indicated that gait speed indoors was not displayed effectively at a pedestrian crossing. It seems that environmental and psychological factors and the necessity for reacting to situations influence the gait speed outdoors.<br>This study suggests that gait speed indoors is not an appropriate indicator of that outdoors.
