Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between sit-to-stand velocity and dynamic or static balance respectively in stroke patients. Methods 22 stroke patients were measured with Five Times Sit to Stand (FTSTS). Static balance performance as well as swaying of center of gravity in lateral directions was recorded with balancing apparatus. The distance of Functional Reach Test (FRT) was also recorded. The relationship between FTSTS scores and hemiparetic side, ENV.Area, and the distance of FRT were analyzed. Results The score of FTSTS positively related with hemiparetic side, ENV.Area, and the distance of FRT (P<0.05). The main factors associated with the sit to stand velocity are the distance of FRT and ENV.Area. Right-side hemiplegic patients stood faster than left-side hemiplegic patients (P<0.05). Conclusion ENV.Area and distance of FRT are the main factors associated with sit to stand velocity. Right-side hemiplegia stand significantly faster than left-side hemiplegia.
