The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effects of blood flow restriction on gait performance on stroke patients. The main question it aims to answer is:
Is there a significant effect of blood flow restriction on gait performance on stroke patients?
Blood flow restriction using pneumatic cuffs combined with low load resistance training has been demonstrated to increase muscle size and strength similar to that observed with traditional high load resistance training. This study may add missing information to the existing literature and suggests directions for research on the effectiveness of blood flow restriction training on gait performance in stroke patients.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The changes in gait performance | Using STEADYS gait assessment system all patients will be assigned to measure the gait phases and gait parameters pre and post study to assess if there is differences. | Pre study each patient will be included in the assessment as walking for 2 minutes wearing the IMU sensors and post study after 6 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The changes of scoring of dynamic gait index | The DGI has 8 items each item with a scoring from 0 which means severe impairment in and 3 which means no gait dysfunction with a total score of 24. It is applied to evaluate gait deviations and risk of falling in people with neurological disorders. | Each patient will be assigned to do every item of the DGI in 10 minutes Pre and post study |
