  • Abstract:  Management of apraxic gait in a stroke patient. Jantra P, Monga TN, Press JM, Gervais BJ. Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL. There is little information available regarding management of apraxic gait. We present a 61-year-old man with a five-year history of right-sided cerebrovascular accident, apraxic gait, difficulty in walking, and frequent falls. A CT head scan revealed moderate cerebral atrophy, a small lacunar infarction. The patient was unable to initiate walking, was bed ridden and housebound. Traditional gait training and balance exercises failed to improve his gait. Two straight canes were modified by fixing florescent horizontal projections approximately two inches up from the tip of the cane. The patient was instructed to step over the horizontal projected portion, making use of visual cues from the florescent painted projections. The patient became independent with safe ambulation after practicing for approximately three weeks and was discharged home. PMID: 1729982 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
