Characterizing Patients with Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction Using Kinematic Variability and Local Dynamic Stability during Treadmill Walking

Table 2

Kinematic characteristics (mean ± SD) of the UVH and control groups. Asterisks indicate a significant difference () between the two groups. Stride width was normalized to the hip width of each subject.

	UVH group	Control group	value
PWS (km/h)	1.91 ± 0.35	2.22 ± 0.83	0.12
Normalized stride; width (%)	0.79 ± 0.05	0.74 ± 0.06	0.03
Cadence (steps/min)	0.79 ± 0.07	0.84 ± 0.10	0.18
Range of knee; motion (deg)	50.83 ± 6.85	52.27 ± 7.33	0.63
Range of ankle; motion (deg)	17.57 ± 2.54	21.47 ± 5.64	0.04
