Gait analysis in chronic heart failure: The calf as a locus of impaired walking capacity

Gait analysis in chronic heart failure: The calf as a locus of impaired walking capacity

Reduced walking capacity, a hallmark of chronic heart failure (CHF), is strongly correlated with hospitalization and morbidity. The aim of this work was to perform a detailed biomechanical gait analysis to better identify mechanisms underlying reduced walking capacity in CHF. Inverse dynamic analyse...
