Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the randomized controlled study is to investigate the effects of task-oriented training on motor and cognitive functions combined with Bobath training in patients with stroke.
Detailed Description
Patients who meet the criteria will be informed about the study and volunteers will be included. When initial assessments will be completed, patients will be assigned to one of two possible sequences by simple randomization: study group (SG) or control group (CG).
All volunteers will recieve Bobath training program with the duration of 8 weeks. Additionally, task oriented training will be applied in SG, 5 days a week for 8 weeks.
All patients will be assessed in terms of motor functions and orientation, awareness, spatial perception, visuomotor construction, visual perception, praxis and thinking operations domains of cognitive funtions at the baseline and at the end of the study. Data will be collected from all the patients at baseline and at the end of the study (8 weeks) by the same physiotherapist who also will supervise the exercise sessions.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Barthel Index (BI)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
BI will be used to assess motor functions.
Dynamic Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment- Geriatric Version (DLOTCA-G)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
DLOTCA-G is a battery test with a test booklet and test kits including 28 items in seven cognitive domains which are orientation, awareness, spatial perception, visuomotor construction, visual perception, praxis and thinking operations.
Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
The Mini Mental State Examination will be used for evaluating cognitive functions.
Functional Independence Measure (FIM)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
FIM will be used to assess and rate motor and cognitive functional status in patients with stroke.
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
