Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
GAIT. Timepoint: Before intervention as a baseline and then at the end of intervention after 4 weeks. Method of measurement: 10 meter walk test will be used to assess the GAIT outcome of patient. A stopwatch and a 10 m pathway will be required for the test. A score of 0.8m/s shows community ambulation.;Balance. Timepoint: Before intervention as a baseline and then at the end of intervention after 4 weeks. Method of measurement: Functional reach test will be used to assess the balance of the participants. It will need measuring tape on the wall and patient will lean forward and score will be noted. A score of greater than 25 will be considered low risk, 15-25 moderate risk and less than 15 high risk of fall.
