Abstract:
In this research, a new set of training methods was created and put into practice to train the body's sit-to-stand balancing ability, and controlling ability of body's gravity centre of patients with cerebrovascular diseases. It contains a series of motion trainings, including sitting position training, standing position training, sit-to-stand training and game training, etc. There is also a series of trainings of feedback included in this set of methods, such as internal feedback, external feedback, bandwidth feedback, conclusive feedback, visual feedback, acoustical feedback and so on. The trainings resulted in better controlling ability of body's centre of gravity in the sit-to-stand process of patients after a period of training. It indicated that these targeted-designed trainings, especially the feedback trainings, could effectively help the under-trained patients to have a better knowledge of their current situation, and in turn to have a better knowledge of which aspects they should take more training to achieve a better therapeutic effect.
