研究组 & 干预措施
Traditional physical therapy
This group received conventional physical therapy treatment including Range of Motion (ROM) exercises for the affected hip, knee, and ankle joints, as well as stretching exercises for tight lower limb muscles, administered 3 times per week for 4 weeks, with each session lasting approximately 20-30 minutes.
干预措施: traditional physical therapy (Other)
High intensity interval training
This group received high-intensity interval training along with conventional treatment for the lower limb muscles
干预措施: High intensity interval training (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Muscle Atrophy
时间窗: 4th week
Measuring tape is used to measure the calf circumference to measure the atrophy, muscle size over time.
Muscle strength
时间窗: 4th week
Manual Muscle Testing is a test that is used to assess muscle strength.
6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT)
时间窗: 4th week
6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) used to measure Functional capacity, aerobic fitness and endurance.
Aerobic Capacity
时间窗: 4th week
Harvard Step Test is used to measure Functional capacity, aerobic fitness and endurance.
次要结局
- Fastest Gait Speed(4th week)
