Effect of circuit gait training vs traditional gait training on mobility performance in stroke.

Abstract

Objective of the study was to determine the effect of circuit gait training versus traditional gait training on mobility performance and quality of life in sub-acute and chronic stroke patients. A randomized control trial was conducted and stroke patients of either gender having 2-4 score on Rankin Modified Scale and able to stand 10 seconds were included in study. A total of 32 individuals were randomly assigned into two groups. They were assigned a 40-50 min/session for 3-4 days/week over length of 06 weeks. Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Fall Efficacy Scale (FES) and Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL) tools assessed measures of interest. The sample comprise of 16 males and 14 females with mean age of 52.53±12.76 years. After six weeks, significant improvement was recorded in BBS (p=0.002). Quality of life and fall risk were also significantly improved and reported using FES (p=0.004) and SS-QOL (p=0.004). Circuit gait training improves mobility, balance and enhances quality of life in stroke patients.
