Abstract Background While manually-assisted body-weight supported treadmill training BWSTT has revealed improved locomotor function in persons with post-stroke hemiparesis outcomes are inconsistent and it is very labor intensive. Thus an alternate treatment approach is desirable. Objectives of this pilot study were to l compare the efficacy of body-weight supported treadmill training BWSTT combined with the Lokomat robotic gait orthosis versus manually-assisted BWSTT for locomotor training post-stroke and 2 assess effects of fast versus slow treadmill training speed. Methods Sixteen volunteers with chronic hemiparetic gait 0.62 0.30 m s post-stroke were randomly allocated to Lokomat n 8 or manual-BWSTT n 8 3x wk for 4 weeks. Groups were also stratified by fast mean 0.92 0.15 m s or slow 0.58 0.12 m s .
