OBJECTIVES: To describe the course of walking behaviour over a period of 1 year after stroke, using accelerometry, and to compare 1-year data with those from a healthy group. DESIGN: One-year follow-up cohort study. SUBJECTS: Twenty-three stroke patients and 20 age-matched healthy subjects. METHODS: Accelerometer assessments were made in the participants' daily environment for 8 h/day during the 1st (T1), 12th (T2) and 48th (T3) weeks after stroke, and at one time-point in healthy subjects. Primary outcomes were: percentage of time walking and upright (amount)Downloads
