• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A

Summary

Sixty-six stroke patients were randomly assigned to three groups (conventional, with the addition of the Erigo®Pro table, and enriched with motor imagery). The Trunk Stability Test, walking speed, step symmetry, and lower limb load symmetry on the Riablo device, as well as the superficial tension of the transverse abdominis and multifidus muscles, were assessed before and after completing therapy.

Detailed description

Sixty-six stroke patients were randomly assigned to three groups (conventional, with the addition of the Erigo®Pro table, and enriched with motor imagery). The Trunk Stability Test, walking speed, step symmetry, and lower limb load symmetry on the Riablo device, as well as the superficial tension of the transverse abdominis and multifidus muscles, were assessed before and after completing therapy. Results: In each of the groups studied, the therapies used significantly improved the functional assessment of trunk stability (Trunk Control Test \<0.001)). Additionally, after the intervention, the Erigo group showed a greater gait speed (p=0.003), while the Visualization group exhibited a higher level of tension in the multifidus (p=0.011) and transverse abdominal muscles (p=0.002).

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Conventional rehabilitation, the Erigo®Pro table, motor imagery on gait.	66 stroke patients were randomly assigned to three groups (22 people each) with different therapies (conventional, with the addition of Erigo®Pro and enriched with motor imagery). The therapy duration was two weeks. Patients underwent assessment before and after completion of therapy. The study used the Trunk Stability Test, and the Riablo device to measure gate parameters. Additionally, an evaluation of the superficial tension of the transverse abdominis and multifidus muscles was conducted.
