Measuring lower extremity activity in stroke patients

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on the Lower Extremity Motor Activity Log (LE-MAL), a semi-structured questionnaire designed to assess the use of paretic lower extremities in daily activities among individuals diagnosed with stroke. Participants will rate their performance across 14 activities, which will help measure their level of assistance, functional ability, and confidence. The study aims to validate the LE-MAL as a reliable tool for capturing real-world lower extremity use, correlating it with other established measures. The results could provide insights into the rehabilitation needs of stroke patients.
