Summary

One of the leading causes of disability among the elderly is stroke. After a stroke, it is highly usual for lower extremity function, balance and trunk control to be compromised. After a stroke, trunk control is a crucial early predictor of functional recovery. Following a stroke, proximal trunk control is necessary for distal limb movement control, balance, and functional capacity.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Dual task training

Dual motor task training for 30 minutes. The dual motor training was divided into two phases. The first part involved a single task condition in which the stroke patient was instructed to stand up from a seated position at a self-selected speed without the use of upper limb assistance. Cognitive and physical tasks, is the second part of training. In addition to a 30-minute selected physiotherapy program.

OTHER

Task-specific training

Began with a highchair before switching to a low one. In addition to a 30-minute selected physiotherapy program.

OTHER

Selected physiotherapy program

Consisting of trunk control, trunk stabilization, balance training and lower extremity strengthening exercises (primarily for the hip adductors and abductors) for 60 minutes.
