Comparison Effects of Two Different Balance Systems on the Balance, Posture and Functionality in Stroke Patients

Summary

Study will include 2 different groups intervention. First group, chronic stroke patients: Bobath Method 30 minutes, 10 minutes bicycle exercises, NMES- (Neuromuscular electrical stimulation) will be applied to the hemiparetic limb 10 minutes, TechnoBody balance training 15 minutes in the same session.

Second group chronic stroke patients: Bobath Method 30 minutes, 10 minutes bicycle exercises Nmes- (Neuromuscular electrical stimulation) will be applied hemiparetic limb 10 minutes and Thera-Trainer balance training 15 minutes in the same session.

Study Aim: İnvestigate and compare the effects of "Techno Body" and "Balance Trainer" on the balance, posture and functionality in patients with chronic stroke in order to bring a new perspective conventional physiotherapy and rehabilitation studies. Study will be an important study in terms of the literature ,effects two technology-supported balance systems will be revealed and compared in stroke patients order to improve balance, posture and functionality.

Study Hypothesis:

1. \- Effects of two different balance systems on balance, posture and functionality are compared in stroke patients; No difference between balance training with TechnoBody device and balance training with Theratrainer device.
2. \- Effects of two different balance systems on balance, posture and functionality compared in stroke patients; Difference between balance training with TechnoBody device and balance training with Theratrainer device.

Conclusion: Effects of two technology-supported balance systems will be improve balance, posture and functionality in stroke patients and balance sistems advantages will be compared.

Interventions

OTHER

TechnoBody

1\. Group-TechnoBody balance training (15 min / 5 days a week, 4 weeks) In the study, the first group will be included in the balance program with the "TechnoBody" device Patients will be applied 5 days of week 1. Exercise bike with visual feedback, which allows active-assisted or resistant work according to the condition of the patient, will be done in the lower limb for 10 minutes. 2. Nmes- (Neuromuscular electrical stimulation) will be applied to the hemiparetic limb for 10 minutes. 3. Bobath Method- 30 minutes

OTHER

Thera-Trainer

2\. Group-Thera-Trainer balance training (15 min / 5 days a week, 4 weeks) the second group will be taken into the balance program with the "Thera-Trainer" device and the results of both groups will be compared after 4 weeks. Patients will be applied 5 days of week 1. Exercise bike with visual feedback, which allows active-assisted or resistant work according to the condition of the patient, will be done in the lower limb for 10 minutes. 2. Nmes- (Neuromuscular electrical stimulation) will be applied to the hemiparetic limb for 10 minutes. 3. Bobath Method- 30 minutes
