Kinematics, kinetics and electromyography for without vs. passive vs. therapist-controlled-orthoses. Mean data for five subjects with incomplete spinal cord injury who walked with partial bodyweight support on a treadmill at 0.54 m/s while wearing no orthoses (without-orthoses), wearing orthoses unpowered (passive-orthoses) and wearing orthoses powered under pushbutton control by a therapist (therapist-controlled orthoses). Stride cycles begin (0%) and end (100%) at heel strike. Double support phases are indicated by vertical lines. The average standard deviation over the stride cycle for each signal and each condition is reported to the right of each plot in units consistent with that signal.
