Overview
Brief Summary
A randomized clinical trial was performed on hemiplegic post-stroke patients with a sample size of 50 (25 in each group).
Detailed Description
It was a single-blinded study. Mirror therapy was given to group A and music therapy was given to group B. Our findings support the alternate hypothesis. This indicates the small effect size for BBS in group A and the moderate effect size for the gait assessment scale in favor of group A.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
BBS (berg balance scale)
Time Frame: 6 Month
A score of 56 indicates functional balance. A score of \< 45 indicates individuals may be at greater risk of falling. A score of ≤49 indicates a risk of falls in individuals with stroke.
FGA (functional gait assessment scale)
Time Frame: 6 Months
The normal score on the FGA would be considered \>27/30; for adults from ages 60 to 80 years, the normal score on the FGA would be considered \>24/30; and for adults over the age of 80 years, the normal score would be considered \>19/30
