Effects of Elbow Crutch Locomotion on Gluteus Medius Activation During Stair Ascending

Effects of Elbow Crutch Locomotion on Gluteus Medius Activation During Stair Ascending

Crutches can help with the locomotion of people with walking disorders or functional limitations. However, little is known about hip muscle activation during stair ascending using different crutch locomotion patterns in people without disorders and limitations. Thus, we determined the acute effects...
