Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of gait training with practicable instruction on gait performance in chronic stroke survivor. Community living adults with chronic stroke conducted gait training with faster touch contact with a cane or gait training with step on a line with affected or unaffected side at day-care facility. After 4 weeks intervention, each gait training led to an improvement in gait speed and seemed to decrease step count. It may be a more practicable approach to improve gait function for community dwelling stroke survivor.
