Effects of Motor Relearning Program Versus Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation on Balance and Gait in Stroke

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Chronic Stroke, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation, Balance, Gait, Gait Speed

In brief

A randomized control trial will be done on diagnosed stroke patients of chronic stage in DHQ Hospital Mirpur and FF Hospital Rawalpindi physical therapy Department.The purpose of the study is to determine Effects of Motor Relearning Program Versus Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation on Balance and Gait in Stroke . Subjects will complete Berg Balance Scale (BBS). 10-meter walk test for gait speed will be used for measuring walking speed in meters per second over a short distance, Timed-Up-And-Go (TUG) Test will be used for test of functional mobility and gait parameter. All these measures will be taken at baseline, then after 6 weeks of intervention. There will be 4 sessions per week. The control group will receive Group Motor relearning programe while the Study Group (B) will receive Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation(PNF)
