An orthotic method of providing reciprocal walking for high thoracic levels of paralysis is detailed. The essential features of the hip guidance orthosis are described, as well as the basic muscle requirements for this form of walking (shoulder, arm and hand function plus Latissimus Dorsi). The walking sequence is described at each stage under the three main headings: mechanics, muscle action and hip guidance orthosis reaction--to build a complete picture of the walking process. The importance of considering the input made by the patient in addition to the purely mechanical orthotic contribution is illustrated.
详细介绍了一种为高位胸椎瘫痪患者提供交互行走的矫形方法。描述了髋部引导矫形器的基本特征，以及这种行走方式的基本肌肉要求（肩部、手臂和手部功能加上背阔肌）。在三个主要标题下，分阶段描述了行走顺序：力学、肌肉动作和髋部引导矫形器反应——以构建完整的行走过程图景。说明了除纯粹的机械矫形贡献外，考虑患者输入的重要性。
