to walk without AFO was self reported. Subjects were asked if they felt comfortable walking without the AFO. Gait speed without AFO was tested only for subjects who reported they felt comfortable ( were able to walk without AFO at self selected and at fast speed).
to Walk is defined as “Yes” if a person reported not able to walk at either self or fast speed, or was observed below 60 at self-speed or below 80 at fast speed.
