Overview
Brief Summary
This study is a single arm study aims to evaluate the effects of lower limb dexterity training on gait and functional performance in stroke patients. Impaired foot and ankle control after stroke can reduce mobility and balance. Participants will undergo three sessions of structured dexterity exercises using the DEXI-Fast device. Gait parameters will be measured with the GAITRite system, and functional performance will be assessed using the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Pre- and post-training outcomes will be compared to determine improvements. The study seeks to identify whether enhancing lower limb dexterity can improve gait and functional independence after stroke.
