Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Sequel of Stroke with motor conditions of training; consent of the individuals with the due signature of the consent term.

Exclusion criteria: Peripheral nerve damage in lower limbs; osteo-articular deformities; cognitive and visual deficits that interfered in the understanding and execution of the proposed training.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome 1: The better results in the reevaluation of motor function when performed on treadmill training with Functional Electrical Stimulation than in training without stimulation, verified by Fugl Meyer Assessment. Outcomes were measured in October 2017.;Outcome 1: The better results in the reevaluation of motor function, verified by increase of five points in the means of the Fugl Meyer Assessment result only after the electrical stimulation was performed in both groups (F(2,40)=8.64, p=0.003). Outcomes were measured in October 2017.;Expected outcome 2: Maintenance of the effects resulting from treadmill training with electrical stimulation, after performing a training period without, verified by results of the instruments that evaluated the sensory motor function (Fugl Meyer Scale), balance (Berg Balance Scale), coordination of lower limbs (Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test), mobility (10 Meter Walk Test, Timed Up and Go Test - TUG) and functional capacity (6-Minute Walk Test). Outcomes were measured in October 2017.;Outcome 2: Maintenance of the effects resulting from treadmill training with electrical stimulation, after period without, verified by the permanence of the averages of the instruments that evaluated the sensory motor function (F(2,40)=8.64, p=0.003), balance (F(2,40)=7.41, p=0.002), coordination of lower limbs (F(2,40)=12.6, p< 0.001; F(2,40)=3.98, p=0.028), mobility (TUG)(F(2,40)=10.9, p=0.001) and functional capacity (F(2,40)=9.52, p=0.001) after training without stimulation. Outcomes were measured in October 2017.;Expected outcome 3: Better performance when performing the training with the electrical stimulation when previously performed without, verified by results of instruments that evaluated the sensory motor function (Fugl Meyer Scale), balance (Berg Balance Scale), coordination of lower limbs (Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test), mobility (10 Meter Walk Test - 10MWT and Timed Up and Go Test - TUG) and functional capaci

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome 3: Improvement of the functional capacity, mobility, balance and motor coordination of the individuals before and after treadmill walking training with and without functional electrical stimulation, verified by the results of the evaluation instruments used. Outcomes were measured in October 2017.;Outcome 3: Improvement of means in the motor function (F(2, 40)=7.41, p=0.002) and coordination in the non-paretic lower limb (F(2, 40)=12.6, p<0.001), regardless of the period in which electrical stimulation was applied, while the improvement of the coordination of the paretic lower limb (F(2, 40)=3.98, p=0.028) occurred only in the group that started the protocol without stimulation. However, the balance gains (F(2, 40)= 8.64, p=0.003) were observed only when individuals only received stimulation and gains in functional capacity (F(2,40)=9.52, p=0.001) and mobility, only of the Time Up and Go Test (F(2, 40)=10.9, p=0.001), when individuals were stimulated at the first moment. There was no difference in the 10 Meter Walk Test. Outcomes were measured in October 2017.
