Summary

This study investigated the effect of treadmill walking training with and without random speed changes in persons in the chronic stage of stroke. It was hypothesized that random speed change group will show less attention and balance demands for speed change in level walking.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Treadmill walking training with random speed changes

Participants were asked to walk in different gait speed randomly on the treadmill (80%, 90%, 100%, 110% and 120% of preferred speed). The training speed would be changed in every 15 seconds in 2-minutes-section. 2 minutes/ section, 10 sections/ day, 3 days/ week, 2 weeks. 1 minute rest time would be held between sections.

OTHER

Treadmill walking training with blocked speed changes

Participants were asked to walk in same gait speed on the treadmill per day (80%, 90%, 100%, 110% and 120% of preferred speed, respectively). 2 minutes/ section, 10 sections/ day, 3 days/ week, 2 weeks. 1 minute rest time would be held between sections.
