Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Male or female patients with stroke after the age of 17 confirmed stroke by neuroimaging, understanding instructions, time after stroke up to 1 year.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Subjects were excluded if they have: the presence of aphasia that would have interfered with the participant's ability to understand and comply with study procedures or complete stroke assessments, dementia, ataxia, localization of stroke in the cerebellum or vertebrobasilar insufficiency, orthopedic problems that affected the ability to walk before the stroke and time after stroke more than 1 year.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Functional Ambulation Category
Time Frame: 1-5 minutes
The Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) is a 6-point functional walking test that evaluates ambulation ability, determining how much human support the patient requires when walking, regardless of whether or not they use a personal assistive device.
Secondary Outcomes
- Simplified Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (S-STREAM)(15-20 minutes)
- Berg Balance Scale (BBS)(15-20 minutes)
- Barthel Index for Activities of Daily Living (BI)(15-20 minutes)
