Stepping Training Using Feedback in Stroke

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Cerebrovascular Accident

• Registration Number: NCT02916797
• Lead Sponsor: Khon Kaen University

Brief Summary

* Are there differences in immediate effects of stepping training with and without the use of visually weight-taking machine (VWTM) on variables relating to well-controlled walking and walking symmetry in ambulatory patients with stroke?

* Are there differences of 4-week stepping training with and without the use of VWTM on variables relating to well-controlled walking and walking symmetry in ambulatory patients with stroke?

Detailed Description

* To compare immediate effects of stepping training with or without the use of VWTM on variables relating to well-controlled walking and walking symmetry in ambulatory patients with stroke.

* To compare effects of 4-week stepping training with or without the use of VWTM on variables relating to well-controlled walking and walking symmetry in patients with stroke.
