简要总结
The purpose of this study is to elucidate optimal dosing for High Intensity Gait Training (HIGT) to reduce locomotor disability for those undergoing inpatient rehabilitation (IR) in the subacute phase of stroke recovery.
This is a randomized controlled trial conducted at a single IR facility. Investigators will randomize patients to receive one of two distinct HIGT interventions or a high step count intervention during standard care.

研究组 & 干预措施
Moderate-Intensity Locomotor Training Program
Treatment will be administered for 10 consecutive 1-hour sessions over a 10-day period. Therapists will deliver the assigned intervention as part of standard care.
干预措施: Moderate-Intensity Locomotor Training Program (Behavioral)
High-Intensity Locomotor Training Program
Treatment will be administered for 10 consecutive 1-hour sessions over a 10-day period. Therapists will deliver the assigned intervention as part of standard care.
干预措施: High-Intensity Locomotor Training Program (Behavioral)
High-Step Count Locomotor Training Program
Treatment will be administered for 10 consecutive 1-hour sessions over a 10-day period. Therapists will deliver the assigned intervention as part of standard care.

结局指标
主要结局
Berg Balance Scale (BBS) Score
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The BBS is a 14-item objective assessment that static balance and fall risk in adults. Each item is rated on a scale from 0-4. The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from ranges from 0 to 56, with lower scores indicating a higher risk of falling and lower functional mobility.
Ten Meter Walk Test (10mWT) Time
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The 10mWT is an assessment of walking speed in meters per second over a distance of 10 meters.
Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) Distance
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The 6MWT is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess walking endurance and aerobic capacity. Participants walk around the perimeter of a set circuit for a total of six minutes. The measure is the total distance covered in six minutes.
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Patient Assessment Instrument (IRF-PAI) - Admission Quality Indicator (QI) Score: Transfers
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The IRF-PAI QI score is an ordinal categorical variable measuring how much assistance a patient requires to complete the task (transfer) There are six categories (1-6) ranging from complete dependence of the patient on a helper to independent completion of tasks. A score of 1 is assigned to dependent patients, while a score of 6 represents independent completion of tasks by a patient.
IRF-PAI - Admission QI Score: Cumulative Ambulation
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The IRF-PAI QI score is an ordinal categorical variable measuring how much assistance a patient requires to complete the task (ambulation) There are six categories (1-6) ranging from complete dependence of the patient on a helper to independent completion of tasks. A score of 1 is assigned to dependent patients, while a score of 6 represents independent completion of tasks by a patient.
IRF-PAI - Admission QI Score: Cumulative Stairs
时间窗: Discharge Assessment (Day 13-14)
The IRF-PAI QI score is an ordinal categorical variable measuring how much assistance a patient requires to complete the task (stairs) There are six categories (1-6) ranging from complete dependence of the patient on a helper to independent completion of tasks. A score of 1 is assigned to dependent patients, while a score of 6 represents independent completion of tasks by a patient.
