Summary

The aim of this clinical trial was to determine whether rhythmic auditory stimulation is effective in treating gait disorders in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia, primary Parkinson's disease, and various parkinsonism syndromes. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does rhythmic auditory stimulation increase walking speed in patients with gait disorders? To determine whether rhythmic auditory stimulation is effective in treating gait disorders, researchers will compare a gait rhythmometer with an active control that does not receive rhythmic stimulation.

Participants will:

Gait training was conducted once a day for 15 minutes for 7 consecutive days Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) was performed before and after treatment Feedback on subjective improvement at the end of the 7-day treatment

Conditions

  • Hemiplegia Due to Stroke
  • Parkinson Disease
  • Parkinsonian Syndrome

Interventions

DEVICE

rhythmic auditory stimulation

The intervention group was treated with a gait rhythm device under the supervision of the researchers. The complete gait training was conducted once a day for 15 minutes for 7 consecutive days. Each patient wore inertial sensors at both ankles during gait training to collect gait information during walking.

DEVICE

No rhythm stimulation

The control group received gait training without rhythmic auditory stimulation under the supervision of the researchers. The complete gait training was conducted once a day for 15 to 20 minutes for 7 consecutive days. Each patient wore inertial sensors at both ankles during gait training to collect gait information during walking.
