Summary

The primary objective of this study is to assess - through a randomized controlled trial - the effectiveness and long-term improvement of motor relearning program on balance, mobility and performance of activities of daily living among post-stroke patients. In this two-armed randomized controlled clinical trial, a total of 66 sub-acute stroke patients who meet the trial criteria will be recruited. The patients will randomly receive task-specific training based on a motor relearning program (MRP) or a conventional physical therapy program (CPT). Twenty-four rehabilitation sessions will be conducted for eight weeks. Both interventions will be followed by analysis of patients' balance, gait and performance of activates of daily living at two time period; post-intervention and follow-up after 3-months, using clinical outcome measures and instrumental analysis of balance and gait.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Study Group (Motor relearning program)	Task-specific training based on motor relearning program will be performed for 8 weeks (3 sessions per week; 1 hr. per session; total 24 sessions). Each training session will consist of five training tasks: (1) bed mobility and sitting up over the side of the bed; (2) balanced sitting; (3) standing up and sitting down; (4) balanced standing; and (5) practice of walking.
OTHER	Control Group (Conventional physical therapy program)	The conventional physical therapy program (CPT) exercises will be performed following a standard stroke rehabilitation program for 8 weeks (3 sessions per week; 1 hr. per session; total 24 sessions). Each CPT rehabilitation session will include the following exercises: (1) passive and active-assisted range of motion; (2) stretching; (3) strengthening exercises; (4) balance exercises; and (5) walking.
