Effectiveness of Task Specific Training with Visual Feedback Training and Visual Feedback Training Alone in Improving Pushers Behaviour in Pushers Syndrome

EFFECTIVENESS OF TASK SPECIFIC TRAINING WITH VISUAL FEEDBACK TRAINING AND VISUAL FEEDBACK TRAINING ALONE IN IMPROVING PUSHERS BEHAVIOUR  IN PUSHERS SYNDROME

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

·       Stroke is becoming an important cause of premature death and disability in low income and middle income countries like India. The evidence is consistent that there are longer recovery times in hemiparetic patients with PS than in those without the condition, around 3–6 additional weeks of recovery to reach the same functional level , and symptoms can persist till 6-8 months, which results in delayed functional and motor recovery than in non-pushers.

NEED OF THE STUDY:

It is evident that pushers syndrome affects

the time of recovery after stroke  So the need

of this study is to find the difference in effect

of  TSBT with andwithout VFB training in

correcting the pushers behaviour and its

impact in improving the speed of recovery in

stroke.

OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY:

The main objective is to see the effect of

TSBT when given along with VFB training for

treating pushers behaviour and treating with

VFB training alone.

METHODOLOGY:

TSBT AND VFB GROUP : Visual feedback training for 20 mins along with task specific balance training for 20 mins /day.

VFB GROUP : Visual feedback training for 20 mins/day.

KEYWORDS:

PUSHERS SYNDROME , PUSHERS BEHAVIOUR , TASK SPECIFIC TRAINING , VISUAL FEEDBACK TRAINING
