Comparative Effects of Dual Task Training and Repetitive Task Training in Chronic Stroke
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Stroke
In brief
Chronic stroke survivors those who have had a stroke for more than six months frequently experience long-lasting, incapacitating deficits, particularly when it comes to motor task impairment. Furthermore, following a stroke, muscle coordination is frequently compromised, resulting in deficiencies in gait and balance control. Dual-task gait training involves incorporating the concept of "doing two tasks" simultaneously. Stroke survivors frequently struggle with walking and multitasking, such as juggling multiple things at once while walking. Repetitive task training (RTT) is a component of contemporary therapeutic approaches in stroke rehabilitation that entails the active practice of task-specific motor exercises. Repetitive task training strategy known as a task-oriented approach entails training a task repeatedly with an emphasis on functional performance aimed at successfully completing it. This study aims to determine the Comparative effects of Dual-task Gait Training and Repetitive task training on dynamic balance, walking function, muscle strength and risk of fall in chronic stroke patients.
