| Objective: To explore the effect of Pro-kin visual feedback balance training on the balance and gait in stroke patients. Methods: Totally, 50 patients with stroke hemiplegia were included and randomly divided into control and observation groups (n=25 each). The control group and observation group were given routine rehabilitation therapy, and observation group was given Pro-kin balance system visual feedback balance training additionally. Before and after treatment, balance and gait assessments were performed using Berg balance scale (BBS), timed “up and go” test (TUGT), Pro-kin balance trainer and digital treadmill monitor. Results: After 2 weeks of treatment, BBS score in both groups were significantly increased (P<0.01), more significantly in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). TUGT score, Perimeter and Ellipse area with eyes open (EO) and eyes closed (EC) were significantly decreased as compared with those before treatment (P<0.01), and those in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, average step length and step frequency in both groups were significantly increased (P<0.01), and step length variability significantly decreased as compared with those before treatment (P<0.01), more significantly in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). No significant differences were noted in step frequency and step length variability between two groups. Conclusion: Pro-kin visual feedback balance training can improve the balance and gait function in stroke patients. |
