Brief summary

Stroke is one of the major cause of lifelong disability if not treated on time, the investigator's technique knows as Compelled Body Weight Shift Technique (CBWS) was utilized and administered to chronic stroke population and results were figured out using gait parameters and Tinetti POMA scale.

Detailed description

Total 28 sample size out of which 27 were divided into control and experimental group. Inclusion criteria was Unilateral chronic stroke with asymmetrical stance, Patients with score of 3,4 and 5 will be included according to FAS (Functional Ambulation Scale), Ability to understand and follow instructions, Both male and female, Any type of stroke, and Age 40-60. Written and informed consent was obtained from participants of study. Six weeks of exercise training was combined with compelled body weight shift technique via shoe lift of 0.6 cm thickness for experimental group and for control group training was performed without shoe lift.

Interventions

OTHERCompelled Body Weight Shift Technique

Routine Physical Therapy with 0.6 cm thickness insole inserted in shoe of unaffected side and following exercises were performed by patients * Muscle re-education * Sit to stand exercise , 4 to 10 repetitions * Supported heel raise to 10 repetitions with 3 sets * Supported squat exercise tibialis anterior and quads muscles to 10 repetitions with 3 sets * Gait training * Forward walk in parallel bars with number of 10 rounds. * Task oriented training balance training * A. Stepping exercise on 15 cm height step and number of repetitions 10. * B. Tandem standing for 10 seconds. * C. Reaching exercise in which patient performed reaching for object in therapists hand and the number of repetitions was 10.

OTHERCompelled Body Weight Shift Technique without insole

Routine Physical Therapy without 0.6 cm thickness insole inserted in shoe of unaffected side and following exercises were performed by patients * Muscle re-education * Sit to stand exercise , 4 to 10 repetitions * Supported heel raise to 10 repetitions with 3 sets * Supported squat exercise tibialis anterior and quads muscles to 10 repetitions with 3 sets * Gait training * Forward walk in parallel bars with number of 10 rounds. * Task oriented training balance training * A. Stepping exercise on 15 cm height step and number of repetitions 10. * B. Tandem standing for 10 seconds. * C. Reaching exercise in which patient performed reaching for object in therapists hand and the number of repetitions was 10.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessmentupto 6 weeksTinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment The Tinetti, evaluation instrument is, an effectively managed, task-arranged test that, quantifies gait and balance activities of patients. A three-point, ordinal scale, extending from 0-2. 0 demonstrates the most elevated level of debilitation and 2 the people's freedom. 1. Total Balance Score = 16 2. Total Gait Score = 12 3. Maximum total test Score = 28 \[Time Frame: upto 6 weeks\]
