Objective: The research identifies the effects of various stimulation gait training on gait capacity for stroke patients.
Method: 40 stroke patients, 20 various stimulation gait training group(VSGT) and 20 Ground gait training(GGT) were randomly assigned. Both group had gait training for 8 weeks, 5 times a week for 30 minutes. VSGT had gait training with mixed various obstacles over a surface and instability ground for 30 minutes, GGT trained with general therapy environment for 30 minutes. To exclude exercise effect, each patient allowed to walk as gait habbit, and induced to get enough rest. Spatiotemporal elements of Gait measured through Zebris FDM-T Treadmill, function and capacity mesured by FMA-L, K-BBS, TUG, 10mWT. General characteristics of the patients were subjected to normality test, in order to compare the change before and after the tests in two groups, one was used for repeated measures analysis of variance(repeated ANOVA) and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test. To compare the change before and after between two groups were analyzed by independent t-test and Mann-Whitney test. The level for statistical significance was set at p<.05 for all data.
Results: There were significant difference on before and after experiment between VSGT and GGT on spatiotemporal element(p<.05). VSGT and GGT score were significantly incresed(p<.05) on before and after experiment. There were significantly decrese on TUG, 10mWT time for both VSGT and GGT(p<.05).
Conclusion: Gait training in a variety of stimulating and balancing abilities of stroke patients is more effective than regular ground gait training, To improve the walking ability and the balance of stroke support instability through gait training stimulates a number of different obstacles over a surface, which provides an effective treatment.
