Summary

Stroke occurred when blood supply to brain or a part of brain is disturbed due to clot (ischaemic stroke) or due rupture of small vessels (hemorrhagic stroke) in brain and causes bleeding in brain cells. The prevalence of stroke was 1.2 % (1200/100,000) in Pakistan, 3.1% in China and it is 44.29 to 559/100,000 in different parts of the world. Leading cause of stroke is hypertension. The aim of study will be to compare universal exercise unit therapy with sling exercise therapy on lower limb kinematics, disability, balance and quality of life in chronic stroke patients.

Conditions

  • Chronic Stroke

Interventions

OTHER

Universal Exercise Unit Therapy (UEU)

Standing, walk standing, half standing, kneel standing, half kneel standing, quadruped position, three point quadruped , alternative quadruped , transitions, walking all these will be done in Universal Exercise Unit with a standardized protocol regimen.

OTHER

Sling Exercise Therapt (SET)

1. The patient's bilateral knee joints/feet will be suspended by a rope belt, and then the patient's pelvis will be elevated and maintained in supine or lateral position, adding flexion and extension training to lower limb if permitted. 2. In supine or lateral position, with patient's head, trunk and pelvis fixed, the therapist will use appropriate elastic bands to assist patient's limbs to do passive-power assisted-power resistance training in all directions (bending, stretch, outreach, and adduction). 3. The patient's chest and abdomen will be suspended by a wide elastic band, positioned him-self in the prone position with the fulcrum of bilateral elbows and knees, and then the torso swayed in all directions, therapists could assist 4. Target elbow and wrist will be suspended, according to the patient's ability to do passive/active open and close chain movement

OTHER

Routine Physical Therapy / Control Group

Control group will receive routine physiotherapy with duration one hour including * Active and passive joint movement * Muscle strength training * Bridging exercises * Balance training in sitting and standing positions, according to the patients' functional state. * Weight bearing exercises on affected Limbs
