Abstract: Hemiplegics after stroke are often disabled in sit-to-stand (STS). This article discussed the biomechanics of STS in the hemiplegic stroke patients, in terms of kinematics, kinetics and surface electromyography, and the rehabilitation for the stroke patients with STS dysfunction. It was found that the stability, duration, symmetry of support and degree and sequence of muscular activation were different when the patients finished the STS task in three foot positions of natural, symmetrical and unaffected foot behind. The early STS rehabilitation training or other rehabilitation may improve the function of the hemiplegic lower extremity to prevent falls and apraxia.

Key words: stroke, hemiplegia, sit-to-stand, foot position, biomechanics, surface electromyography, rehabilitation, review
