Participants Twenty participants over the age of 18, of any gender and ethnicity, diagnosed with first time unilateral stroke, 4 - 20 weeks post-stroke onset, resulting in hemiparesis with foot drop will be recruited. The number of participants was estimated based on previously reported studies. Hyun et al found significant differences in gait endurance measured by 6MWT when using AFO compared to using no AFO with 15 participants in a similar study. In another study by Carse et al, gait velocity and gait symmetry were found to be significantly better with 8 participants.Therefore, for our study, the potential participant number was projected as 20.
