|
|
Purpose : This study was performed for effects of gait component and plantar foot pressure on gait training way needed in gait with hemiplegic patients caused by cerebrovascular accident.
Methods : Three groups of adult hemiplegia(n=30) were allocated randomly in this study : group I(TGT : treadmill gait training), group II(USGT : unstable surface gait training) and group III(SGT : surface gait training). The gait training was provided to experimental groups for 8 weeks(5 times a week). Measurements of pre and post experiment were gait velocity, step length, toe out angle, foot plantar pressure which demonstrate temporal-spatial parameter of gait component.
Results : The results of this study showed that in comparison of pre and post changes of gait training, SGT group has statistically significant differences in gait velocity, metatarsal area of foot plantar pressure, TGT group has statistically significant differences in gait velocity, toe out angle, midfoot of foot plantar pressure. USGT group has statistically significant differences in gait velocity, step length, toe out angle.
Conclusion : These results mean gait training resulted by gait training way provides effective gait, with stroke, and therefore proper response about environmental changes and various tasks could be made.
