Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of virtual reality-based walking exercises and treadmill walking exercises on balance, fear of falling, motor function, respiratory function, and fatigue in individuals who have had a stroke.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

How do virtual reality-based gait exercises and treadmill exercises affect balance, fear of falling, motor and respiratory functions, and fatigue in patients with chronic stroke? H0: There is no statistically significant difference between virtual reality-based gait exercises and treadmill exercises in terms of their effects on balance, fear of falling, motor and respiratory functions, and fatigue in patients with chronic stroke.

H1: There is a statistically significant difference between virtual reality-based gait exercises and treadmill exercises in terms of their effects on balance, fear of falling, motor and respiratory functions, and fatigue in patients with chronic stroke.
