Abstract

PURPOSE: Patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) are unable to walk faster even after spinal fixation. Gait rehabilitation that focuses on movements associated with reduced speed may help improve gait function. This study aimed to identify the gait characteristics associated with walking velocity in postoperative patients with ASD.
