Changes in Gait Variables in Patients with Intermittent Claudication.

The presented kinematic and kinetic characteristics measured by gait variables suggest differences between patients with IC and healthy people. Considering kinematic and kinetic gait variables during the rehabilitation process would facilitate the development of a more economic gait technique (with increased stride length and range of motion in the lower limb joints) to obtain the desired rehabilitation effects. Patients with IC should receive rehabilitation oriented towards improving mobility and increasing muscle strength in selected lower limb joints to increase gait velocity and stride length.
