Abstract:Objective To compare the effects of 3 kinds of gait training methods on stroke patients. Methods 60 patients were divided into 3 groups, and received routine gait training, assistance and partial body weight supported treadmill training (PBWSTT) respectively. They were assessed with 10-meter Maximum Walking Speed (MWS), Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT), Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before, 1 and 3 months after training. Results MWS, TUGT, FIM and FMA all improved in 3 groups, ranked as assistance group, routine gait training group, and PBWSTT group after training. The PBWSTT group improved the best. Conclusion PBWSTT is more effective on walking after stroke.
