Study Overview
Brief Summary
While there is only one study examining the effect of WBV on oxygen consumption and cardiovascular responses in individuals with stroke, no study has been found on the effect of WBV on respiratory capacity and flow volumes and changes in functional capacity due to effort. In this study, it was aimed to investigate whether the WBV treatment protocol determined has an effect on functional capacity and respiratory functions in individuals with stroke.
