The approach adopted was to measure average heel force on the hemiparetic side and to measure the temporal asymmetries in gait from video recordings. It was found that most of the therapy gains had been lost since treatment ended. It was concluded that the improvements acquired during biofeedback therapy are not maintained over time without maintenance strategies, and are liable to be situation-specific.
