简要总结
Introduction: Sarah souza pontes et al conducted a systemic review on effects of isokinetic muscle strengthening on muscle strength, mobility, and gait in post-stroke patients which concluded that isokinetic muscle strengthening seems to be a useful strategy for improving muscle strength, mobility, and gait in post-stroke patients.
According to the literature variable treatments have been used to improve the gait parameters and muscular strength which are backward walking, treadmill walking, mirror box therapy, open chain and closed chain kinematic exercises etc along with different assessing instruments.
Need for the study: The combination of using isokinetic device and gait analyzer for assessment is the new need to check for the effectiveness on gait parameters in hemiplegic patients. Due to dearth in the adequate information of using an isokinetic device and gait analyzer as an assessment and rehabilitative tool further insight is needed.
