The Effects of Aerobic Exercise Training on Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Functional Capacity, Balance and Ventricular Repolarization Indices in Stroke Patients

Seventy patients with history of stroke admitted to our center between July 2017 and January 2018. Subjects participated in the study were randomly assigned to anti-gravity treadmill training, underwater walking therapy and control group. We examined aerobic capacity of participants by using 6-minute walk test and cycle ergometer testing before starting the treatment along with one month follow up. Patient's balance examined by using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS).
